Dinematichthyini
Dinematichthyini is a tribe of viviparous brotulas, which is conventionally placed within the subfamily Brosmophycinae. They are differentiated from the other tribe within that subfamily, the Brosmophycinae , by having a single pair of ossified genital claspers, having an absence or greatly reduced scales on the head and having the posterior end of the maxillary bone showing a small amount of vertical expansion.[1] A review of the viviparous brotulas carried out in 2016 elevated the tribe to a family, the Dinematichthyidae.[2]

gollark: But I don't want to do that, because it would unsatisfy those worldly goals.
gollark: Dying would not maximize bee density.
gollark: Why would that affect my decision-making?
gollark: And?
gollark: Yes, I would not in the future care about said world-states, due to being dead. However, now, I care about those future worldstates, and it would be stupid to do something which would prevent me affecting them.
