Resumen

Invalidation of the record of Lionurus carapinus (Goode & Bean, 1883) (Osteichthyes, Macrouridae) from the Western Mediterranean
A detailed study of those specimens captured in the Western Mediterranean and determined as Lionurus carapinus (Goode & Bean, 1883), has shown that they belong to the species Cotyphaenoides guentheri (Vaillant, 1888). Morphometnc, meristic and anatomic characters are presented in order to separate Lionurus carapinus (Goode & Bean, 1883) from Coryphaenoides guentheri (Vaillant, 1888).
