A.M. Prokofiev
Abstract. Beckerophotus gen. n. is described for Eomyctophum gracile Daniltshenko, 1962 from the Middle Eocene of Georgia. This is the first fossil member of the family Neoscopelidae known by skeletal material. The new genus is distinguished from any other neoscopelids by the combination of the very elongate body, the presence of photophores, enlarged conical teeth on jaws, posteriorly placed pelvic fins and other characters.
