Distribution
Quote based on characters in this ref (and after examining many specimens from throughout the Atlantic), should be considered as full species (T. Iwamoto); Marshall disagreed and the 2 authors compromised as agreed to treat as 2 different populations/subspecies; best to leave M. carminatus as a synonym of Coelorinchus caelorhincus (T. Iwamoto, pers. Comm. (Jan 2014).
