Etymology: Phyllorhinichthys: Greek, 'phyllon' = leaf + Greek, 'rhinos' = nose or snout + Greek, 'ichthys' = fish (in reference to the leaf-like flaps on its snout) (Ref. 86949); balushkini: Named after the Russian ichthyologist Balushkin.
Eponymy: Dr Arcady Vladimirovich Balushkin (1948-2021) was an ichthyologist at the Zoological Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences, St. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Short description
Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri
Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 5; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 5. Diagnosis: Metamorphosed females of this species have longer illicium (16.0-20.8% SL) than P. micractis (11.5-12.6%SL); and further differs in having a single anterior escal appendage (vs. 2), bifurcated only at the distal tip; considerably longer, more slender, distal escal appendage, 36.4-57.6% SL (vs. 6.4-15.8%SL); and, has probably smaller, less-well-developed snout flaps, however, skin of the snout of 3 of the 5 known specimens is torn away that making proper assessment of the character is impossible (Ref. 53300).
Known from five (5) known specimens. A 12.5-cm specimen with about 35-mm long (27%SL) ovaries contains thousands of tiny eggs, each about 0.2-0.3 mm in diameter (Ref. 53300). Minimum depth from Ref. 58018.
