Only one other species of fish has been recorded from depths in excess of 8,000 m (26,000 ft), the so-called ethereal snailfish (living in the same region as Pseudoliparis swirei but somewhat deeper), but it has only been seen on film and remain undescribed. [6]
The record was surpassed by snailfish filmed in the Mariana Trench at depths of 8,145 m (26,722 ft) in 2014 [19] and 8,178 m (26,831 ft) in 2017, [14] [20] and at 8,336 m (27,349 ft) in the Izu–Ogasawara Trench in 2023. [21] The species in these deepest records are unknown and may be undescribed, but have been referred to as "ethereal snailfish".

Pseudoliparis amblystomopsis, or the hadal snailfish, is a species of snailfish from the hadal zone of the Northwest Pacific Ocean, [1] including the Kuril–Kamchatka and Japan Trenches. [ 2 ] In October 2008, a team from British and Japanese institutes discovered a shoal of Pseudoliparis amblystomopsis at a depth of about 7,700 m (25,300 ft ...
There are over 300 species of Snailfish. While many live in shallow waters (tidepools) and river estuaries, some have adapted to the cold water, as well as the high-pressure depths of the world's deepest trenches over 7,000m. [8] In general, the snailfish (notably genus Pseudoliparis) is the most common and dominant family in the hadal zone. [4]
Liparis atlanticus is a small tadpole-like fish with a soft, scaleless body and complex ventral sucker formed from heavily modified pelvic fins. [6] It has a single dorsal fin which is clearly incised at the 5th or 6th ray and the fins have comparatively ferwer fin rays than its congeners.
