Ariosoma mauritianum (Pappenheim, 1914) View in CoL
All previous Red Sea records of this species (see: Dor, 1984) are evidently misidentifications. This species was included by Castle (1968) on the basis of Leptocephalus macrenteron described from the Red Sea and placed tentatively in synonymy of A. mauritianum . No adults are known for this species from the Red Sea.
The type is in poor condition ( Eschmeyer, 1998; Eschmeyer & Fricke, 2009) and not identifiable (D. Smith, pers. comm.), so that the species need a neotype designation.
