Acropoma lecorneti
Acropoma lecorneti is a species of ray-finned fish, a lanternbelly from the family Acropomatidae. It is found in the western Pacific Ocean where it has been recorded off Japan and New Caledonia.[1] This species was first formally described by the French ichthyologist Pierre Fourmanoir (1924-2007) with the type locality given as north of the St Vincent Pass off the western coast of New Caledonia at a depth of 360 metres (1,180 ft).[2] The specific name honours the skipper of the fishing boat Thalassa, Monsieur Lecornet, who took the type aboard that vessel.[1]
