Ecology of Bassozetus taenia
 
Main Ref. Nielsen, J.G. and N.R. Merrett, 2000
Remarks Scarcity in specimens contribute to its wide bathymetric range - those caught in the Atlantic were from abyssal depths (4450-5605 m) while four specimens caught in Exuma Sound, Bahamas were from lower slope depths (1783-2046 m).
