GIGANTACTINIDAE Females of the Gigantactinidae are distinguished by having an elongate, laterally compressed body; a long slender illicium, with highly variable lengths (less than SL to nearly five times SL) emerging from the anteriormost tip of the snout; length of head less than 35% SL; mouth near...
