Tetrabrachiidae, or the four-armed frogfishes, is a small family of marine ray-finned fishes belonging to the suborder Antennarioidei in the order Lophiiformes, the anglerfishes. These fishes are found in relatively shallow waters of the eastern Indian Ocean and western Pacific Ocean.

Taxonomy

Tetrabrachiidae was first proposed as a subfamily, the Tetrabrachiinae, of the family Antennariidae in 1912 by the English ichthyologist Charles Tate Regan with only a single genus included, Tetrabrachium, a monospecific genus which had been proposed by Albert Günther in 1880.[2] In 2009 a second monospecific genus, Dibrachichthys, was added to the family when its was described by Theodore Wells Pietsch III, Jeffery W. Johnson and Rachel J. Arnold.[3] The Antennariidae is classified within the suborder Antennarioidei within the order Lophiiformes, the anglerfishes.[4] This family is regarded, with its sister taxon, the Antennariidae as the most derived clade within the suborder Antennarioidei.[5]

Genera

Tetrabrachiidae contains the following two monospecific genera:[6][7]
