Observation of a live Gyrinomimus at 1981 m depth suggests value of ROV surveys in ichthyofauna documentation.
A live Gyrinomimus (Cetomimidae) was observed via ROV at 1981 m off Antofagasta, Chile, marking the first in situ record of the genus in the southeastern Pacific. Morphological features support its identification and highlight the value of deepsea ROV surveys for documenting elusive ichthyofauna in underexplored bathyal ecosystems.
