Eustomias paucifilis Parr, 1927

– No common name.

The species E. paucifilis was regarded as being present to the southwest of the Azores, at a depth of 2000 m ( Fowler 1936, without indication of the geographical coordinates). In later years, there was one record in the southwest of the Azores ( Post 1987), but the specimen was caught outside the EEZ and outside the proposed extension of the Portuguese continental shelf. Because of uncertainties in its distribution, this species was not considered for the estimation of the total number of species in the checklist.
