Smith Institute of Ichthyology; No. 50 , The eelpout fauna of the southwestern Pacific presently includes 6 species, one of which, Pachycara garricki, is described as new. Full species accounts and illustrations are also provided for Melanostigma inexpectatum, Ophthalmolycus campbellensis, and Lycenchelys maoriorum, known previously only from the meager type series. Two species, Melanostigma gelatinosum, and M. vitiazi were redescribed in the first part of this series, but expanded diagnoses are provided here. Lycenchelys maoriomm and O. campbellensis are expected to be endemic to the New Zealand Plateau and perhaps Lord Howe Rise.
