Three species, Atypichthys strigatus (Gunther), Kathetostoma giganteum Haast, Navodon multiradiata (Gunther), are reported for the first time from Tasmania. The inclusion in the local list of Vincentia novaehollandiae (Valenciennes), on which doubt had been cast by recognition of the validity of V. lemprieri (Johnston), is confirmed~ General observations are made on the following species: Squatina australia Regan, Alahes dorsalis (Richardson), Alabes rufus (Macleay), Anguilla reinhapdtii Steindachner, Scorpis lineolatus Kner, Kathetostoma laeve (Bloch &Schneider), Gnathanacanthus goetzeii Bleeker. A key to the Tasmanian species of Alabetidae is supplied.
