Synaphobranchus oligolepis Ho, Hong & Chen, 2018b: this volume (type locality: Dong-gang, Pingtung, southwestern Taiwan).

Remarks. This species initially was confused with Synaphobranchus affinis due to the position of origin of dorsal fin. However, the large naked areas on anterior portion of body readily separate it from S. affinis .
