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.
Pseudoliparis belyaevi has been found in the NW Pacific Ocean in the Izu-Ogasawara and Japan Trench. [3] They were caught as deep as 7579m in the Japan Trench. [4] This possibly breaks the depth record for a fish collected from the seafloor, previously held by Pseudoliparis swirei at a depth of 7,966 m (26,135 ft). [5]

The world's deepest fish ever filmed has been caught on camera by scientists from The University of Western Australia (UWA) and Japan at a depth of more than eight kilometres underwater. An ...
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 ...
On this dive, Prof. Michibayashi became the deepest-diving Japanese person in history. [4] Also in August 2022, the deepest fish ever recorded on camera was filmed in the trench, a juvenile snailfish, at a depth of 8,336 meters. [5] The xenophyophore Occultammina was first discovered at a depth of 8260 metres in the trench. [6]
Species of deep-sea snailfish have been studied and compared to other ray-finned fishes (also known as teleosts) to analyze their adaptions to deep-sea conditions. The genomes of both the Yap hadal snailfish and Mariana hadal snailfish have been found to contain an abundance of the fmo3 gene, which produces the trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) protein stabilizer.
Pseudoliparis are native to the hadal zone of the ocean. They have been observed swimming at extreme depths of 8,336 metres (27,349 ft; 5.180 mi), in very deep ocean trenches of the Pacific Ocean, [4] [5] including the Izu-Ogasawara Trench and the Mariana Trench.
