 | | ) were collected to investigate intergeneric relationships within the deepsea whalefishes, family Cetomimidae, and to test statistically alternative hypotheses of the family's wider phylogenetic relationships, principally in regard to its placement within the stephanoberyciform and beryciform lineages. |
 | | The data are generally concordant with intra-familial relationships of the Cetomimidae determined from morphological analyses (Paxton, 1989). |
 | | Within Cetomimidae, species of Gyrinomimus and Cetomimus are grouped, but the former is paraphyletic with respect to the latter. |
