Pseudoliparis (fish)
''Pseudoliparis'' is a genus of snailfishes native to very deep water in the northwestern Pacific Ocean. Species There are currently three recognized species in this genus: * ''Pseudoliparis amblystomopsis'' ( Andriashev, 1955) * '' Pseudoliparis belyaevi'' Andriashev & Pitruk, 1993 * ''Pseudoliparis swirei'' Gerringer & Linley, 2017 Habitat ''Pseudoliparis'' are native to the hadal zone of the ocean. They have been observed swimming at extreme depths of , in very deep ocean trenches of the Pacific Ocean, including the Izu-Ogasawara Trench and the Mariana Trench The Mariana Trench is an oceanic trench located in the western Pacific Ocean, about east of the Mariana Islands; it is the deep sea, deepest oceanic trench on Earth. It is crescent-shaped and measures about in length and in width. The maxi .... References Liparidae Taxa named by Anatoly Andriyashev {{Liparidae-stub ...

Pseudoliparis Swirei
''Pseudoliparis swirei'', the Mariana snailfish or Mariana hadal snailfish, is a species of snailfish found at hadal depths in the Mariana Trench in the western Pacific Ocean. It is known from a depth range of , including a capture at , which is possibly the record for a fish caught on the seafloor. Various anatomical, physiological, molecular and genetic adaptions help this species survive in such depths. This pale, tadpole-like fish reaches up to in standard length and in weight. It is apparently the top predator along certain stretches of the Mariana Trench, feeding on tiny crustaceans in a deep-water habitat with few larger predators. ''Pseudoliparis swirei'' are abundant in their deep-sea habitat and lay relatively large eggs that are almost in diameter. Discovery The first specimens of this species were caught in 2014 during an expedition of the research vessel ''Falkor''. To catch the fish, deep-water traps designed to minimize the damage to the caught fish during the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Genus
Genus (; : genera ) is a taxonomic rank above species and below family (taxonomy), family as used in the biological classification of extant taxon, living and fossil organisms as well as Virus classification#ICTV classification, viruses. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. ''Panthera leo'' (lion) and ''Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomy (biology), taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants of an ancestral taxon are grouped together (i.e. Phylogeneti ...

Snailfish
The snailfishes or sea snails (not to be confused with invertebrate sea snails), are a family of marine ray-finned fishes. These fishes make up the Liparidae, a family classified within the order Scorpaeniformes. Widely distributed from the Arctic to Antarctic Oceans, including the oceans in between, the snailfish family contains more than 30 genera and about 410 described species, but there are also many undescribed species. Snailfish are found at depths ranging from shallow coastal waters to more than , including in seven ocean trenches. Taxonomy The snailfish family, Liparidae, was first proposed by the American biologist Theodore Gill in 1861. The 5th edition of ''Fishes of the World'' classifies this family within superfamily Cyclopteroidea, part of the suborder Cottoidei of the order Scorpaeniformes. Other authorities do not recognise this superfamily and classify the two families within it, Cyclopteridae and Liparidae, within the infraorder Cottales alongside the ...

Pacific Ocean
The Pacific Ocean is the largest and deepest of Earth's five Borders of the oceans, oceanic divisions. It extends from the Arctic Ocean in the north to the Southern Ocean, or, depending on the definition, to Antarctica in the south, and is bounded by the continents of Asia and Australia in the west and the Americas in the east. At in area (as defined with a southern Antarctic border), the Pacific Ocean is the largest division of the World Ocean and the hydrosphere and covers approximately 46% of Earth's water surface and about 32% of the planet's total surface area, larger than its entire land area ().Pacific Ocean .

Pseudoliparis Amblystomopsis
''Pseudoliparis amblystomopsis'', or the hadal snailfish, is a species of snailfish from the hadal zone of the Northwest Pacific Ocean, including the Kuril–Kamchatka and Japan Trenches. In October 2008, a team from British and Japanese institutes discovered a shoal of ''Pseudoliparis amblystomopsis'' at a depth of about in the Japan Trench. These were, at the time, the deepest living fish A fish (: fish or fishes) is an aquatic animal, aquatic, Anamniotes, anamniotic, gill-bearing vertebrate animal with swimming fish fin, fins and craniate, a hard skull, but lacking limb (anatomy), limbs with digit (anatomy), digits.

Pseudoliparis Belyaevi
''Pseudoliparis belyaevi'' is a species of snailfish found in hadal zone of the Northwest Pacific Ocean, particularly the Japan Trench. Geographic range ''Pseudoliparis belyaevi'' has been found in the NW Pacific Ocean in the Izu-Ogasawara and Japan Trench. They were caught as deep as 7579m in the Japan Trench.

Hadal Zone
The hadal zone, also known as the hadopelagic zone, is the deep sea, deepest region of the ocean, lying within oceanic trenches. The hadal zone ranges from around below sea level, and exists in long, narrow, topographic V-shaped depressions. The cumulative area occupied by the 46 individual hadal marine habitat, habitats worldwide is less than 0.25% of the world's seabed, seafloor, yet trenches account for over 40% of the ocean's depth range. Most hadal habitat is found in the Pacific Ocean, the deepest of the conventional oceanic divisions. Terminology and definition Historically, the hadal zone was not recognized as distinct from the abyssal zone, although the deepest sections were sometimes called "ultra-abyssal". During the early 1950s, the Danish ''Galathea expeditions#Second expedition, Galathea II'' and Soviet ''RV Vityaz (1939), Vityaz'' expeditions separately discovered a distinct shift in the life at depths of not recognized by the broad definition of the abyssal zon ...
