Ogcocephalus sp. — "Polka-dot Batfish"

Listed as Ogcocephalus radiatus (Mitchill) and "rare" by Clavijo et al. (1980:8).

Remarks: The name O. radiatus has been uncritically applied to several species but, in the absence of type specimens, Bradbury (1980) considered this nominal species to be unidentifiable. Voucher specimens are required to determine the identification of this species.

MUGILIDAE —mullets (7 species)
