Champsodon sp.

Champsodon sp.

Figure 15h View Fig Remarks Te two otoliths are well-recognized as Champsodon by a pentagonal outline that is pointed at both anterior and posterior ends, a high angled mediodorsal rim, two angles on the ventral rim, a deeply incised and oblong ostium, and a narrow, shallow, and downward oriented, but rather indistinct, cauda ( Schwarzhans, 2019c: pl. 2, figs. 1–8). It should be noted that identifying Champsodon species based on otoliths alone can be challenging as the differences between species are often subtle ( Schwarzhans, 2019c).
