One specimen with GR 3 + 1 + 10, total 14 (left side), GR 2+ 1 + 9, total 12 (right side). UJ 4,9-7,1 (mean 5,8) in SL; UJ 1,5-2,2 (mean 1,8) in HL. Origin of dorsal fin behind vertical through ventral base; origin of anal fin on or in advance of vertical through base of last dorsal ray. Adipose origin well in advance of vertical through base of last anal ray. Pectoral fin extending to about anal origin; ventral fin extending to about V04. Dn present, sexually dimorphic in mature males; Vn absent. Opi small, op- posite expanded posterior margin of maxilla; Op2 somewhat posterior to Opi, below level of vental margin of orbit. 5 PO, evenly spaced and level. PVOi about above PO2-PO3 interspace and slightly below level of PVO2, which is at lower base of pectoral fin. PLO about midway between upper pectoral base and lateral line. 4 VO, evenly spaced, with VO2 elevated. VLO slightly in advance of vertical through VOi and at about level of upper pectoral base. SAO series straight or slightly curved, with SAOi on or behind vertical through VO4 and slightly below level of VLO, with SAO2 above anus, and with SAO3 behind ver- tical through anal origin and in contact with lateral line. AO level; no AOp. Fig. 9. Diogenichthys panurgus (SM 143D), with dorsal view of supracaudal luminous gland (Cf) and ventral view of infracaudal luminous gland (9).
