Abstract

So far overlooked records from Argentina’s Exclusive Economic Zone are being added to the national list of marine fishes: Careproctus maculosus, C. minimus, C. stigmatogenus, and Paraliparis hubbsi. For the current lack of reproducible proof six species need to be removed from Uruguay’s marine ichthyofauna.
