Egg capsule 1: 79.55 mm × 30.76 mm × 15.68 mm with a 37.42 mm × 27.10 mm oval egg (Figure 3). Egg capsule 2: 76.52 mm × 19.28 mm × 14.47 mm with a 40.74 mm × 18.35 columned egg. Five specimens were obtained from a fish buyer, but three individuals were processed and sold, while two others were kept for research; two egg capsules (EBFS020204010602-3) from 1 of 3 processed individuals were also retained and are deposited with the two intact specimens.</p><p>Diagnosis. Snout moderately short and broadly rounded, 2/3 of mouth width; nasal flaps large, narrow-based and lobate; gill septa not excavated and concave posteriorly. First dorsal fin about as large as second; first dorsal origin just behind pelvic origins; first dorsal insertion slightly behind pelvic insertions; second dorsal smaller than anal fin; second dorsal origin well behind anal origin; second dorsal insertion about over anal insertion; ventral edge of caudal peduncle and preventral caudal margin with a crest of enlarged denticles.</p><p>Distribution. Known previously from off southern Japan, these new records extends its geographic range to the deep waters off northeastern Taiwan.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/567287AB0450FF857285FD47FDF5FA54	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
