Note
The majority of deepwater fishes collected at or near the Galápagos were the result of the 1891 voyage of the U. S. Fish Commission Steamer Albatross (Garman 1899). Thirteen stations, the deepest at 1740 fathoms, were made along a southerly transect from north of Isla Darwin to the central Galápagos plateau, then to the east from northern Isla Floreana (Charles) to Isla San Cristóbal (Chatham) and across to the mainland. The western, southern, and eastern margins of the archipelago were not sampled.
