Etymology:
Borostomias:
Greek, boros, -a, -on = gluttonous + Greek, stomías, -ou = a tough, hard -mouthed horse (Ref.

)
.
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecology
Marine; bathypelagic; depth range 500 - 2500 m (Ref.
58018
). Deep-water; 36°N - 18°S, 98°W - 143°E
Eastern Atlantic: Madeira south to Angola. Western Atlantic: Gulf of Mexico and western Caribbean Sea. One specimen collected off the Guianas (Ref.

). Body moderately slender and elongate. Serial photophores not broken in small groups. Black in color (Ref.
