Description:
Two new species were discovered during the course of a study on the systcmatics and distribution of the world-wide deep-sea squid genus Balhyteiithis. Both species occur in the eastern Pacific Ocean, one from the tropical waters of the Bay of Panama and the other from the cooler waters off southern California. The species are briefly described here so that the
descriptions and names will be available for use by workers currently engaged in regional surveys, e.g., that in preparation by R. E. Young, Institute of Marine Sciences, University of Miami. Detailed descriptions will be presented in the more comprehensive study (Roper, 1968).
