A new species of clingfish, Dellichthystrnskii sp. n. is described on the basis of 27 specimens, 11.9–46.0 mm SL, collected from intertidal and shallow coastal waters of New Zealand. It is distinguished from its only congener, D.morelandi Briggs, 1955 by characters of the cephalic sensory system and oral jaws, snout shape, and colouration in life. A rediagnosis is provided for D.morelandi, which is shown to exhibit sexual dimorphism in snout shape.

Collections made along the coast of California have revealed the presence of a species of Pseudosphaeroma Chilton, 1909, a genus common in New Zealand coastal waters. The genus is entirely Southern Hemisphere in distribution, and this record reports the introduction of a species of Pseudosphaeroma into the San Francisco and Central Coast region of California, the first reported occurrence of the genus as an invasive taxon, and the first record of the genus from the Northern Hemisphere. The genus is also recorded for the first time from the Galapagos and Argentina.

The Family

Mexicope sushara sp. nov. is recorded from southeastern New Zealand coastal waters, the first record of the genus from the Pacific and the first record of the Acanthaspidiidae from New Zealand. The species is from the continental shelf, taken in association with a bryozoan colony at a depth of 80 metres on the Otago Shelf, southeastern South Island. The distinguishing characters are a rostral spine and prominent and acute pre-ocular lobes; these characters in conjunction with stalked eyes separate the species from all others in the family.

Apparent optical properties of the water at 21 ocean stations in the South Pacific, east of New Zealand in the vicinity of the Chatham Rise, have been studied. Spectral irradiance attenuation and reflectance, and PAR irradiance attenuation, were measured in Sub-tropical and Sub-antarctic water masses, in the Sub-tropical Convergence zone between them, and in coastal waters. The waters studied are considered to be predominantly Jerlov optical types II and III. Anomalous features at wavelengths above 590 nm in the spectra of reflectance and of the vertical attenuation coefficient for upward irradiance were attributed predominantly to Raman emission with a contribution from chlorophyll fluorescence at longer wavelengths.
