An
ongoing revision of the American dinematichthyine fishes (Ophidiiformes,
Bythitidae) based on examination of about 2000 specimens will be published in
two parts. This publication is Part I, which includes 209 specimens in the
genera Dinematichthys (one W. Atlantic species), Gunterichthys (one W. Atlantic and two new E.
Pacific species), Ogilbichthys (new genus with seven new W. Atlantic species), Pseudogilbia (new genus with one new W.
Atlantic species) and Typhliasina (resurrected with one W. Atlantic cave species). The
diagnostic characters are male pseudoclaspers, head pores, otoliths, gill
rakers, morphometric proportions, fin ray and vertebral counts. Part II will
comprise the revision of the speciose and abundant genus Ogilbia.
