Diagnosis. Same as for the genus.
Geographical distribution. Atlantic, western and central Pacific, and western Indian oceans, between 47ºN and 36ºS (Grey, 1964; Schaefer et al., 1986b; Quéro et al., 1990c; Aizawa, 2002; Mundy, 2005; Fricke et al., 2009; Judkins, Haedrich, 2018; Sutton et al., 2020). In the western Atlantic, the species is reported from off Canada to Uruguay, including the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea (Grey, 1964; Bekker et al., 1975; McAllister, 1990; McEachran, Fechhelm, 1998; Schmitter-Soto et al., 2000; Harold, 2003; Nión et al., 2016; Judkins, Haedrich, 2018). In Brazil, Pollichthys mauli was previously recorded from off Rio Grande do Norte to Rio Grande do Sul States (Vasconcelos-Filho et al., 1996; Figueiredo et al., 2002; Menezes et al., 2003; Bernardes et al., 2005; Braga et al., 2007; Haimovici et al., 2008; Costa, Mincarone, 2010), and near the Vitória-Trindade Chain (Montague and Davis seamounts; Pinheiro et al., 2015). Larvae were recorded between Bahia and São Paulo States, including the Vitória-Trindade Chain (Bonecker, Castro, 2006; Goçalo et al., 2011; Bonecker et al., 2012, 2014). Pollichthys mauli is reported here based on one specimen collected between depths of 75 and 525 m off Rio Grande do Norte State ( Fig. 7A View FIGURE 7 ).
