The coloration of small individuals of Nozawa’s prickleback, Stichaeus nozawae is presented for the first time, based on a specimen (112 mm SL) collected by T/S Ushio-maru from the Funka Bay, Hokkaido. The specimen has obscure bands on dorsal, anal, caudal and pectoral fins. Although specimens of comparable sizes (57.4-168 mm SL) have obscure bands on these fins, most larger specimens (252-361 mm SL) have no bands on the caudal and pectoral fins. Most descriptions or images in previous studies, including the original description, were based on large specimens (220-450 mm SL), which have no bands on these fins. Thus, bands on caudal and pectoral fins of S. nozawae tend to disappear with growth

A taxonomic examination of 3,108 specimens of mesopelagic fishes, collected around the Ogasawara Islands in December 2010 by a beam trawl net operated from the T/S Oshoro-maru, Hokkaido University, Japan, resulted in the recognition of 99 species representing 34 families and 65 genera. Descriptions are provided for all species, two of them〔 a stomiid Eustomias braueri Zugmayer, 1911 and linophrynid Haplophryne mollis (Brauer, 1902)〕 being new records for Japan. Three species, a stomiid Eustomias sp., trachipterid Desmodema sp. and oneirodid Oneirodes sp., could not be identified at the species level
