Abstract

A revision of the genus Genioliparis Andriashev et Neelov, 1976 with a description of a new species G. kafanovi sp. n. (holotype ZIN no. 54079), the Ross Sea, depth of 987–1727 m) was made. The genus Odontoliparis Stein, 1978 was reduced to the synonymy of Genioliparis. A hypothesis was suggested of the origin of the genus Genioliparis, which was previously considered an endemic of the Southern Ocean, in the northern Pacific and of its dispersal together with other genera of liparids (Paraliparis and Careproctus) to the southern hemisphere along the periphery of deep waters of the American continents. A key to identification of the species of the genus was compiled.
