Remarks. Collected from off Bahia, Espírito Santo and Rio de Janeiro, at depths of 266 to 1762 m. Five species of Bregmaceros were assigned for the western South Atlantic: Bregmaceros atlanticus Goode and Bean 1886 ; B. cantori Milliken and Houde 1984 ; B. cayorum Nichols 1952 ; B. houdei Saksena and Richards 1986 ; and B. macclellandi Günther 1862 ( Milliken & Houde 1984; Shen & Wang 1991; Menezes 2003a; Torii et al. 2004). The genus is under revision and several new species remain to be described, including a species from the area of study (A. Harold, pers. comm., 2008).
