          Abstract

          Two species of different families belonging to the order Anguilliformes have their ranges extended in the southwestern Atlantic: the chlopsid Chlopsis dentatus (Seale, 1917) from Rio de Janeiro and the muraenid Gymnothorax maderensis (Johnson, 1862) from Bahia.  The new records extend the distribution of these species south along the Brazilian coastline.  Morphometric data of the specimens are provided and compared to data from the literature.
