Luciobrotula
''Luciobrotula'' is a genus of cusk-eels. The larvae have an ovoid body, elongate anterior dorsal-fin ray, and long trailing fleshy filament Species There are currently six recognized species in this genus: * ''Luciobrotula bartschi'' Hugh McCormick Smith, H. M. Smith & Lewis Radcliffe, Radcliffe, 1913 * ''Luciobrotula brasiliensis'' Jørgen G. Nielsen, J. G. Nielsen, 2009 * ''Luciobrotula coheni'' Jørgen G. Nielsen, J. G. Nielsen, 2009 * ''Luciobrotula corethromycter'' Daniel Morris Cohen, Cohen, 1964 * ''Luciobrotula lineata'' (William Alonzo Gosline III, Gosline, 1954) * ''Luciobrotula nolfi'' Daniel Morris Cohen, Cohen, 1981 * ''Luciobrotula polylepis'' Man-Kwan Wong, Wong, Mao-Ying Lee, Lee & Wei-Jen Chen, Chen, 2021 References Ophidiidae Ray-finned fish genera {{Ophidiidae-stub ...

Ophidiidae
The cusk-eel family, Ophidiidae, is a group of marine bony fishes in the Ophidiiformes order. The scientific name is from the Greek ''ophis'' meaning "snake", and refers to their eel-like appearance. True eels, however, diverged from other ray-finned fish during the Jurassic, while cusk-eels are part of the Percomorpha clade, along with tuna, perch, seahorses, and others. Distribution Cusk-eels are found in temperate and tropical oceans throughout the world. They live close to the sea bottom, ranging from shallow water to the hadal zone. One species, ''Abyssobrotula galatheae'', was recorded at the bottom of the Puerto Rico trench, making it the deepest recorded fish at . Ecology Cusk-eels are generally very solitary in nature, but some species have been seen to associate themselves with tube worm communities. Liking to be hidden when they are not foraging, they generally associate themselves within muddy bottoms, sinkholes, or larger structures that they can hide in or ar ...
