A new trachichthyid fish of the genus Hoplostethus Cuvier, 1829 is described. The new sp, H.cadenati, differs from H.mediterraneus Cuvier, 1829 and H.atlanticus Collett, 1889 but it presents some affinities with H.atlanticus. Mensurations and meristic counts of holotype and 12 paratypes are given. H.cadenati is distributed in the waters along the coast of north-west Africa at South of 27{degree}N, at depths of 200-800 m.
