In Coccorella atlantica there are two CMCs ( Fig. 16A View Figure 16 ). In lateral view they are teardrop-shaped with the tips pointing away from each other.The upper CMC is smaller in size than the lower CMC.There is no articulation with caudal fin rays. In posterior view the CMCs are wider than the hypural plates, forming a bracket with swollen endings to the left and right and therewith forming a posteriorly facing concavity ( Fig. 16B View Figure 16 ).
