Chiasmodontidae (Snaketooth fishes)
Etymology: Pseudoscopelus: Greek, pseudes = false + Greek, skopelos = a lantern fish (Ref. 45335). Lütken did not recognize the presence of photophores on the body, confusing them with pores, but referred to a genus of lanternfish (Scopelus now Myctophum) when he named the genus (Ref. 85782).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 19.1 - 26.3, mean 21.7 °C (based on 10 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
