Extralimital depth range: 9– 47 m.

Type material location: NHM, London.

Remarks: This species is distinguished from Heterophoxus trichosus by the short tooth on the posterodistal corner of epimeron 3 and the length of the posterior lobe of the basis on peraeopod 7 which reaches the distal margin of the merus.

Heterophoxus videns is extensively distributed in the Antarctic region where Rauschert (unpubl.) expands its records to the South Shetland Islands and reports the species for the first time in the Drake Passage. The species is reported also in the Magellan province from southern Tierra del Fuego and Chile by Chiesa et. al. (2005) and Rauschert (unpubl.), respectively. The two other species, Heterophoxus pellusidus and H. trichosus , are found only in the West Antarctic province. Heterophoxus videns reaches the northest limit at Brazil on the Atlantic side and in the Pacific Ocean reaches Valparaiso.
