Description
Sigmops bathyphilus (Vaillant, 1884)
(Fig. 4D)
Diagnosis. Sigmops bathyphilus can be distinguished from congeners by the presence of adipose fin; anal-fin origin in line with dorsal-fin origin; 10–14 pectoral-fin rays; 11–15 dorsal-fin rays; 7–9 pelvic-fin rays; 21–26 anal-fin rays; 28–32 gill rakers; no photophores on isthmus; two rows (lateral and ventral) of minute and obscure photophores; IC 32–38; OA 14–16, in an irregular row (Grey, 1964; Mukhacheva, 1972; Kenaley, Stewart, 2015c; Coad, 2018a).
Geographical distribution. Circumglobal between 70ºN and 45ºS, except the western Indian Ocean (Grey, 1964; Schaefer et al., 1986a; Pequeño, 1989; Hutchins, 2001; Møller et al., 2010; Kenaley, Stewart, 2015c; Béarez et al., 2017; Sutton et al., 2020). In the western Atlantic, the species is reported from off Greenland, Canada, United States, the Bermudas and the Caribbean Sea, and off Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil (Mukhacheva, 1972; Grey, 1964; Harold, 2003; Moore et al., 2003; Costa, Mincarone, 2010; Møller et al., 2010; Judkins, Haedrich, 2018). Here we report on one specimen of S. bathyphilus collected off Rio Grande do Norte State, near the seamounts of the region, between depths of 700 and 1,113 m (Fig. 3C).
Specimen examined. 1: NPM 4764, 1 (155 mm), AB2#59A.
