Bathyuroconger albus Smith, Ho & Tashiro, 2018c : this volume (type locality: Daxi , Yilan, northeastern Taiwan, northwestern Pacific Ocean)

Remarks. This species has long been identified as Bathyuroconger vicinus , which was originally described from the Atlantic Ocean. After a detailed comparison, Smith et al. (2018c) found four new species present in this genus, which brings the total number of species in the genus to six. Besides the two new species described from Taiwan, two other species are described here from Hawaii and the Philippines (the latter from the type series of B. parvibranchialis ).
