Abstract: Paraxanthias notatus (Dana, 1852) (Fig. 17H) Paraxanthias notatus Odhner 1925: 84; Balss 1938: 51; Sakai 1939: 470, 1965: 142, pl. 71, fig. 3, 1976: 430–43, pl. 155, fig. 3; Edmondson 1946: 291, fig. 177e; Guinot 1964b: 30, 1968: 718, fig. 47; Dai et al. 1986: 277, fig. 156B(2), pl. 38(4); Dai and Yang 1991: 299, fig. 156B(2), pl. 38(4) (for complete synonymy); Ng et al. 2008: 204 [List]; Ng et al. 2017: 94 (for complete collection records from Taiwan). Material examined: 2 ò, NMNS 8772-61, 8.8–9.8 × 5.9–6.5, Shadao, Hengchun Township, Pingtung County, coll. H.- T. Hung, 17 October, 2020. Distribution: Indo-Pacific (Dai and Yang 1991). Remarks: The morphology of the present specimen (Fig. 17H) aligns with the description of Paraxanthias notatus (Dana, 1852) provided by Dai and Yang (1991: 299, pl. 38 (4)). Collection records from Taiwan suggest that the distribution of this species is predominantly confined to the southern tip of Taiwan and nearby offshore islands (Ng et al. 2017).
