Genus Zanclistius Jordan, 1907 View in CoL View at ENA
( Fig. 72)
Zanclistius Jordan, 1907: 236 View in CoL (type species: Histiopterus elevatus Ramsay and Ogilby, 1888 View in CoL ).
Diagnosis. Arrector ventralis originating from posterolateral portion of cleithrum and coracoid; lower caudal lobe supporting eight branched fin rays; dark spot posteriorly on dorsal fin; number of lateral line pores 55-65.
Remark. The genus Zanclistius is monotypic, containing only Zanclistius elevatus ( Ramsay and Ogilby 1888) . This genus is separable from other members of the pentacerotids from the Australian and New Zealand waters (e.g., Pentaceropsis , Paristiopterus , and Parazanclistius ) by having falcate-shaped body and extremely long dorsal fin (vs. a crescent body and dorsal fin not extremely long in others).
