Etymology: Gigantactis: Greek, 'gigas' or 'gigantos' = gigantic + Greek, 'aktis' = ray (referring to the unusually long first dorsal-fin spine that functions as a lure in this genus) (Ref. 86949); cheni: Named for Mr. Din-Moo Chen, who is an excellent fisherman and who collected most samples, including the type series of both the new species in this reference.
Eponymy: Din-Moo Chen is described in the etymology as an excellent fisherman who collected (off northeast Taiwan) most samples for the authors’ studies, including the type series of both new species in the publication which included the eponymous species [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = No PD50 data [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.3 ±0.7 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (37 of 100).
