Diaphus roei, the small lanternfish, is a species of lanternfish found in the Philippines and the western-central Atlantic Ocean.[2][3]
Etymology
The fish is named in honor of Richard N. Roe (1936–2016), of the US National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), Southeast Fisheries Center, in Pascagoula, Mississippi, who obtained specimens collected from the NMFS research vessel Oregon.[4]
