Cusk-eels of the family Ophidiidae, subfamily Ophidiinae from the eastern Pacific Ocean are reviewed. The family Ophidiidae (sensu stricto) is treated as being composed of three lineages which are recognized at the subfamilial level: the Genypterinae, Lepophidiinae, and Ophidiinae. Within the subfamily Ophidiinae, five genera are recognized: Chilara, Ophidion, Otophidium, Parophidion, and Raneya. Of these, Chilara and Raneya are monotypic. All known species of ophidiine cusk-eels are discussed and there is a general statement regarding the distribution of each. Keys to identify the genera of ophidiine cusk-eels and the eastern Pacific species of Ophidion are included.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Cusk-eels of the family Ophidiidae, subfamily Ophidiinae from the eastern Pacific Ocean are reviewed. The family Ophidiidae (sensu stricto) is treated as being composed of three lineages which are recognized at the subfamilial level: the Genypterinae, Lepophidiinae, and Ophidiinae. Within the subfamily Ophidiinae, five genera are recognized: Chilara, Ophidion, Otophidium, Parophidion, and Raneya. Of these, Chilara and Raneya are monotypic. All known species of ophidiine cusk-eels are discussed and there is a general statement regarding the distribution of each. Keys to identify the genera of ophidiine cusk-eels and the eastern Pacific species of Ophidion are included.
520 $a Nine species of ophidiine cusk-eels occur in the eastern Pacific Ocean of which three are herein described as new. Two nominal species, Ophidion novaculum Harry and Ophidion nigricauda Breder, are regulated to synonymy. The nine valid species are illustrated including the prejuvenile stage of two forms.
520 $a For each of the nine ophidiine cusk-eels a synonymy, differential diagnosis, description, etymology, and discussion concerning geographic and bathymetric distribution as well as life-history information and ecological aspects are given.
520 $a Intergeneric and interspecific comparisons along with an analysis of meristic and morphometric characters are presented. The credibility of Chilara, Ophidion, and Otophidium as distinct and recognizable genera is substantiated.
520 $a The subfamily Ophidiinae manifests a Tethyean distribution. The zoogeography of the nine eastern Pacific species is considered and the known distribution for each is illustrated. Three species are anti-tropical while the other six species all show tropical patterns of distribution.
520 $a The nine valid species of ophidiine cusk-eels recognized from the eastern Pacific Ocean are: Chilara taylori (Girard, 1858); Ophidion fulvum (Hildebrand and Barton, 1949); Ophidion galeoides (Gilbert, 1890); Ophidion iris Breder, 1936; Ophidion scrippsae (Hubbs, 1916); Otophidium indefatigabile Jordan and Bollman, 1890; and the three species which are new to science.
