The Barrelfish Hyperoglyphe perciformis, a centrolophid fish new to the Norwegian fauna
A specimen of Hyperoglyphe perciformis (Centrolophidae, Perciformes) was taken in a gill net at 4 m depth in the inner Oslofjord (i.e. Holmenfjord, Asker district), SE Norway on 27 July 1983. This is the first record of the species in Norway and the first European one outside the British Isles. Som...

A specimen of Hyperoglyphe perciformis (Centrolophidae, Perciformes) was taken in a gill net at 4 m depth in the inner Oslofjord (i.e. Holmenfjord, Asker district), SE Norway on 27 July 1983. This is the first record of the species in Norway and the first European one outside the British Isles. Some aspects of morphometrics, with emphasis on the otolith (sagitta) description, and zoogeography are briefly given. It is concluded that this species is unlikely to become established in European waters due to low temperature, and its accidental occurrence here will always be rare.
