Bembridae Kaup, 1873 View in CoL View at ENA

Type genus: Bembras Cuvier View in CoL in Cuvier and Valenciennes, 1829

Sister taxon: Neosebastidae View in CoL þ Plectrogeniidae View in CoL þ Scorpaenidae View in CoL þ Synanceiidae View in CoL

Concept and content: Nine species classified in four genera: Bambradon View in CoL , Bembras View in CoL , Brachybembras View in CoL , and Parabembras View in CoL

Phenotypic diagnosis: First and second hypurals are separated (character 68, state 0).

Support statistics: The bootstrap support for this clade was 0.70.

Systematic comment: This revised Bembridae View in CoL includes the recently recognized Parabembridae View in CoL because our phylogeny and previous work (e.g., Near et al., 2013) have resolved these two families as a single clade. We retain Bambradon View in CoL and Brachybembras View in CoL in Bembridae View in CoL following Eschmeyer View in CoL et al. (2017). Additional work on their placement is warranted. Generic composition and species recognition follow Eschmeyer View in CoL et al. (2017).
