Description

Paraliparis hystrix is up to 14 cm (5.5 in) long. It is white in colour with a black belly and tail.

Its specific name is from Ancient Greek ὕστριξ (hystrix), meaning "bristly". It has no common name in English, but is known in Danish as mørkhalet dybhavsringbug, "dark-tailed deep-sea seasnail".

Habitat

Paraliparis hystrix lives in the north Atlantic Ocean and in Canada's arctic waters off the Davis Strait. It is benthic and bathydemersal, living at 250–1,150 m (820–3,770 ft).
