Bathophilus brevis Regan & Trewavas, 1930 .

Deepbody Dragonfish. To 5.5 cm (2.1 in) SL (Gibbs and Barnett in Quéro et al. 1990). Circumglobal ( Fricke et al. 2020); western Pacific Ocean north to Ogasawara Islands (Aizawa in Nakabo 2002); Point Sal, central California (Personal communication: Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History Fish Collection, Los Angeles, California) to Chile ( Pequeño 1989). Depth: 75–1,650 m (246–5,412 ft) ( Morrow and Gibbs 1964).
