Remarks. Chen et al. (2010) firstly provided underwater photographs identified as Pisoodonophis zophistius , which is a junior synonym of this species. McCosker & Randall (2002) discussed the nomenclatural confusion about this species and established the validity of Ophichthus altipennis . Two voucher specimens were found (NTUM 1793 and NTUM 50567) in the collection by YH.
