content: This catalog number was originally applied to 7 specimens from Albatross 3717, coll. 11 May 1900. Two additional specimens from same station were retained at Stanford. Jordan and Richardson (1908, Proc. USNM, 33:648) described Hoplichthys gilberti and designated and illustrated the type as a specimen of 5.25 inches from Albatross 5070, collected on 15 October 1906, but assigned it to USNM 51271. This specimen was apparently returned to USNM from Stanford in 1931 and combined with the 7 original specimens in the lot. Because USNM 51271 was published as the holotype of Hoplichthys gilberti, that number is retained for the holotype, and the 7 original specimens from Albatross 3717 have been recatalogued as USNM 398507.
