ABSTRACT

A number of ambiguous irregularities in sagittal otolith morphology of some beryciform fishes are discussed. It is suggested that the genera Adioryx, Holocentrus and Flammeo do not form a family unit together with the genera Myripristis and Plectrypops. It is therefore tentatively proposed, in agreement with other works, that the subfamilies Holocentrinae and Myripristinae be elevated to full family rank.
