Paraliparis abyssorum is a species of fish in the family Liparidae (snailfish).[3][4][5]

Description

Paraliparis abyssorum is maximum 11.3 cm (4.4 in) long,[6] and brown in colour. Its mouth is terminal (i.e. pointing straight forward) and small, with simple teeth.[7]

Habitat

Paraliparis abyssorum lives in the northeast Atlantic Ocean, to the southwest of Ireland; it was first discovered off the Porcupine Bank.[8] It lives in the bathydemersal zone, up to 3,715 m (12,188 ft) deep, hence its specific name abyssorum ("of the depths").[7]

Behaviour

Paraliparis abyssorum is a demersal spawner, meaning that it deposits eggs in a pre-prepared nest on or under the seafloor.[9] Its eggs are 3 mm (0.12 in) diameter and have a volume of 14 mm3 (0.00085 cu in).[10]
