Embiotocidae, a unique family within the Perciformes that has evolved complex viviparous natural history, lacked full resolution and strong support in several interspecific relationships until recently. Here we propose three taxonomic revisions embiotocid surfperches based on recent molecular phylogenetic analyses robustly resolve all relationship Eastern Pacific species: Hypsurus caryi (Agassiz, 1853) resurrected to its original name Embiotoca Agassiz, 1853, Rhacochilus vacca (Girard, 1855)...
