Lopholatilus villarii, the tilefish, is a species of marine ray-finned fish, a tilefish belonging to the family Malacanthidae. It is native to the western South Atlantic Ocean off the coasts of Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina.[1] This species was first formally described in 1915 by the Brazilian naturalist Alpilio de Miranda Ribeiro (1874-1939) with the type locality given as Praca do Mercado, Brazil. [2] The specific name honours the Brazilian naval captain Frederico Otávio de Lemos Villar (1875-1964) who participated in fisheries research off Brazil.[3]
