Resumo

described species of perciform fishes that could not be identified to genus or family. Except for the anterior vent the new fish has strong affinities with the family Serranidae (Serraninae). The only other known group of perciform fishes with anterior vent is the family Acropomatidae to which the new species is not otherwise related. As discussed below the new fish is tentatively assigned to the family Serranidae.
