Summary

Dynamical forms of pelagic fishes are revealed for regions of the east-tropical Atlantic. They turned to be larvae of Bothus podas, eels and surface Mictophidae. The epipelagial (25-100 m deep) had predominant numbers of Vinciguerria and interzonal Mictophidae, the meso-pelagial (100-700 m deep) was exuberant in cyclothones.
