gilberti, Chimaera Garman [S.] 1911:90 [Memoirs of the Museum of Comparative Zoology v. 40 (no. 3); ref. 17947] Off Kauai, Hawaiian Islands, depth 957-1067 fathoms. Holotype: USNM 51592. Based on Chimaera purpurescens Gilbert 1905, not regarded as preoccupied by C. purpurascens Jordan & Snyder 1904:235 [ref. 2519] -- the later without distinguishing features. Therefore an unneeded replacement name. •Objective synonym of Hydrolagus purpurescens (Gilbert 1905) -- (Didier 1995:15 [ref. 22713], Mundy 2005:86 [ref. 28379], Dyldin 2015:78 [ref. 34524]). Current status: Synonym of Hydrolagus purpurescens (Gilbert 1905). Chimaeridae. Habitat: marine.
