Description: Common monkfish. Usually around 200 mm in total length.
Has walking anal fins. Ocgocephalidae, probable genus
either Dibranchus or Halieutichthys. The fundamental
shape is that of Dibranchus, but I cannot see the
details necessary in this low-res image. The close
resemblance to Dibranchus would suggest this is the correct
genus, if so the species found commonly in the Gulf of Guinea from 45-1300 m depth is Dibranchus atlanticus. One
other species Dibranchus tremendous is found in the region but typically deeper than this survey (750-2300 m). The details necessary to resolve the species are not visible in the photograph.
