Pearlside
''Maurolicus'' is an oceanic ray-finned fish genus which belongs in the marine hatchetfish family Sternoptychidae. They are commonly known as pearlsides, but the brilliant pearlside is the related ''Argyripnus iridescens''. Occasionally, "bristle-mouth fishes" is used as a common name, but that usually refers to the genus ''Argyripnus'' or the family Gonostomatidae. Fossils of pearlsides are known from the Miocene. Species There are currently 15 recognized species in this genus: * ''Maurolicus amethystinopunctatus'' Cocco, 1838 * ''Maurolicus australis'' Hector, 1875 (pennant pearlside) * ''Maurolicus breviculus'' Parin & Kobyliansky, 1993 * ''Maurolicus imperatorius'' Parin & Kobyliansky, 1993 (Emperor seamount lightfish) * ''Maurolicus inventionis'' Parin & Kobyliansky, 1993 * ''Maurolicus japonicus'' Ishikawa, 1915 (North Pacific lightfish) * ''Maurolicus javanicus'' Parin & Kobyliansky, 1993 (Javan pearlside) * ''Maurolicus kornilovorum'' Parin & Kobyliansky, 1 ...

Sternoptychidae
The marine hatchetfishes or deep-sea hatchetfishes as well as the related bottlelights, pearlsides and constellationfishes are small deep-sea ray-finned fish of the stomiiform family Sternoptychidae. They are not closely related to and should not be confused with the freshwater hatchetfishes, which are teleosts in the characiform family Gasteropelecidae. The Sternoptychidae have 10 genera and about 70 species altogether.Nelson (2006): p.209 The scientific name means "''Sternoptyx''-family", from ''Sternoptyx'' (the type genus) + the standard animal family suffix "-idae". The type genus derives from Ancient Greek ''stérnon'' (στέρνον, "breast") + ''ptýx'' (πτύξ, "a fold/crease") + Latin ''forma'' ("external form"), the Greek part in reference to the thorax shape of marine hatchetfishes. Description and ecology Found most often at depths of 200–600 meters in tropical, subtropical and temperate waters of the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans, marine hatchetfi ...
