Antipodocottus Mesembrinus
''Antipodocottus'' is a genus of marine ray-finned fishes belonging to the Family (biology), family Cottidae, the typical sculpins. These fishes are found in the western Pacific Ocean. This is the only genus of Cottids represented in the Southern Hemisphere, although their classification in the Cottidae is not universally accepted. Taxonomy ''Antipodocottus'' was first proposed as a monospecific genus in 1952 by the American ichthyologist Rolf Ling Bolin when he Species description, described ''Antipodocottus galathea'' from the Tasman Sea off New Zealand. The 5th edition of ''Fishes of the World'' classifies the genus ''Alcichthys'' within the subfamily Cottinae of the family Cottidae, however, other authors classify the genus within the subfamily Psychrolutinae of the family Psychrolutidae. Species There are currently four recognized species in this genus: * ''Antipodocottus elegans'' Ronald Fricke, R. Fricke & Heiko Brunken, Brunken (:de:Heiko Brunken, de), 1984 (Dwarf scul ...

Rolf Ling Bolin
Rolf Ling Bolin (22 March 1901 – 23 August 1973) was an American academic ichthyologist. A genus of lanternfish, ''Bolinichthys'', is named for him. Biography Bolin was born on 22 March 1901 in New York City to Scandinavian American parents. He initially pursued a career in graphic arts, but then took courses in marine biology. Bolin was awarded a Ph.D. from Stanford University in 1934, and worked at Hopkins Marine Station in Pacific Grove of Monterey County, California. There he was sought for information on fishes from Ed Ricketts and John Steinbeck. He was appointed Professor of Marine Biology and Oceanography in 1949 at Stanford, where he worked until his retirement in 1967.

Hugh Hamilton DeWitt
Hugh Hamilton DeWitt (28 December 1933-5 January 1995) was an American ichthyologist, marine biologist and oceanographer. DeWitt was born on 28 December 1933 in San Jose, California, son of Carl Bryce Seligman, a country doctor, and Honor Pettit Seligman, a teacher of mathematics and Latin. His surname at birth was Seligman but at his father's urging he and his brothers changed their name to DeWitt in the 1950s, a name from their mother’s side of the family, as they had encountered mistaken preconceptions while attending High Schools in the eastern United States. His brothers were the theoretical physicist Bryce Seligman DeWitt, Lloyd Lewis DeWitt (1926-1988), who joined the United States Foreign Service and Hiram Pettit DeWitt (b.1936), a teacher. He grew up largely in California, leaving to attend high school at the Putney School in Vermont. He returned to California to enrol at Stanford University, gaining his Bachelor's degree in 1955, masters in 1960 and doctorate in 1966, ...

Psychrolutidae
The fish family Psychrolutidae (commonly known as blobfishes, toadfishes, flathead sculpins, tadpole sculpins,) contains over 35 recognized species in 8 genera. This family consists of bottom-dwelling marine sculpins shaped like tadpoles, with large heads and bodies that taper back into small, flat tails. The skin is loosely attached and movable, and the layer underneath it is gelatinous. The eyes are placed high on the head, focused forward closer to the tip of the snout. Members of the family generally have large, leaf-like pectoral fins and lack scales, although some species are covered with soft spines. This is important to the species as the depths in which they live are highly pressurized and they are ambush/opportunistic/foraging predators that do not expend energy unless they are forced to. The blobfish has a short, broad tongue and conical teeth that are slightly recurved and are arranged in bands in irregular rows along the premaxillaries; canines are completely absent. T ...
