摘要
Three species of the bigeye fish family, Priacanthidae, are recorded from Nova Scotia based on new material. The specimens are all juveniles, one of the Glasseye Snapper, Heteropriacanthus cruentatus. eight of the Bigeye, Priacanthus are-natus, and two of the Short Bigeye, Pristigenys alta. The record of the Glasseye Snapper is the first for Canada and a northward range extension of over 1000 km for the species. A key to the four species of western Atlantic bigeyes is given.
