Nematops
Nematops is a genus of righteye flounders native to the Indo-West Pacific. Due to their small size (up to 10 centimetres or 3.9 inches) and depth of habitation (up to 650 metres or 2,130 feet) few examples of this genus are caught, and as a result little is known of their morphology and distribution.
