Remarks

meso-bathypelagic. After Pearson (1906, p.28): vertical range down to 700 m at 51°N, 12°W. Known to occur at depths between 400 and 1300 m Matthews, 1972). Sampling depth (sub-Antarct.): 0-1000 m. Sargasso Sea: 500-1000 m (Deevey & Brooks, 1977, Station "S");
For Park (1993, p.27) this species can be readily distinguished from the others in the genus by its characteristic gibbous swelling on the back of the head, and swollen setae on the mandibular palp; also characteristic is the presence on the P1 basis of a large conspicuous tubercle bearing a seta.

In ''affinis"" Group after Matthews (1972, p.64) {See remarks in Euaugaptilus genus}
