content: Note 1: Specimen found in jar on shelf without external neck label. Both labels found in jar identify the specimen as Ophidium brousonetti, although one has been corrected to Ophidion brousonetti. However the neck labels are not dated. The ledger entry has the taxonomic identification as Ophidion barbatum, but this may have been a later addition to the ledger. Because none of these identifications are dated or signed, but no indication of barbatum is left with the specimen itself, I have chosen to update the taxonomy to the accepted Ophidion rochei from brousonetti, but all remain in the taxonomy list. Note 2: Specimen in poor condition, in multiple pieces and head has pretty much fallen apart.
