(Type spe- cies: Centrolophus joponicus Doderlein in Steindachner and Doderlein, 1885:183, by original designation. Tokyo, Japan.) The combination of less than 25 dorsal finrays, about eight short spines not in- creasing in length to the rays in the dor- sal fin, toothless palate, pelvic insertion under pectoral fin base, supramaxillary bone present, and lateral line arched an- teriorly straightening out over the anal fin, distinguishes Hyperoglyphe from all other stromateoid genera. The name, a feminine noun, is from the Greek vvkfj, above, + y\vyi, groove, in reference to the deep longitudinal groove in the roof of the mouth. Description. Body moderately deep, maximum depth around 30 to 35 per cent of the standard length; musculature firm. Caudal peduncle broad, of moderate length. Dorsal fin originating over or a little behind insertion of pectoral fins, continuous, six to eight short stout spines not gra
