Coelorinchus aff. carminatus (Goode 1880) (Fig. 2 G) Material examined. 35 specimens: MNRJ 26876 (3, 175.0–210.0 mm), T, D- 538; MNRJ 26924 (1, 332.0 mm), T, D- 464; MNRJ 26926 (1, 270.0 mm), T, D- 502; MNRJ 26942 (1, 200.0 mm), T, E- 521; MNRJ 26980 (1, 173.0 mm), T, E- 515; MNRJ 26981 (2, 249.0–259.0 mm), E- 534; MNRJ 26982 (3, 230.0–260.0 mm), T, E- 543; MNRJ 26983 (9, 190.0–262.0 mm), T, E- 502; MNRJ 26984 (1, 331.0 mm), E- 541; MNRJ 26985 (7, 200.0–213.0 mm), T, E- 508; MNRJ 26986 (2, 250.0–358.0 mm), T, E- 517; UF 165817 (2, 150.0–225.0 mm), T, D- 538; USNM 389077 (2, 195.0–200.0 mm), T, D- 538. Remarks. Collected from off Bahia, Espírito Santo and Rio de Janeiro, at depths from 379 to 801 m. Coelorinchus aff. carminatus belongs to a species complex of five species, sometimes treated as subspecies of Coelorinchus caelorinchus (Risso 1810): C . caelorinchus C . carminatus (Goode 1880); C . geronimo Marshall and Iwamoto 1973; C . marinii Hubbs 1934; and C . polli Marshall and Iwamoto 1973 (T. Iwamoto, pers. comm. 2008). The shape of the snout plate is similar to what is described for C . carminatus however, the pattern of spinules on the scales differs from specimens from North Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico. The type locality of C . carminatus is off New York, USA (40 °02’ 54 ” N, 70 ° 23 ’ 40 ” W), but holotype is lost (USNM 26001; D. Smith, person. comm., 2009). Further comparisons between our material and specimens obtained from the western and central North Atlantic are being made by the senior author. This species has probably been reported from Brazil and Argentina as C . carminatus (Uyeno 1983; Séret & Andreata 1992; Cousseau 1993; Menezes & Figueiredo 2003 a). : Published as part of Melo, Marcelo R.
