Table 3. Standard length and the measurements expressed in percent (%) of standard length of species of Lophiomus Gill, 1883 described in this study. Values are expressed as ranges; values in parentheses are means ± standard deviations. Definitions and measurement abbreviations follow Caruso (1981). Abbreviations: HT = Holotype; N/A = unavailable; NT = neotype; ST = syntypes.
