Distribution map of Euaugaptilus fundatus by geographical zones
bathypelagic.Recorded at a depth range of 1000-2000 m (Matthews, 1972). For Grice & Hulsemann (1967, p.32) this species resembles E. longiseta and E. curtus. It is distinguised from these by the structure of the Md, Mx1 and Mx2.
In ''affinis"" Group after Matthews (1972, p.64) {See remarks in Euaugaptilus genus}.
