    Abstract The notothenioid family Bathydraconidae is a poorly understood family of fishes endemic to the Southern Ocean. There is especially little information onAkarotaxis nudiceps, one of the deepest‐dwelling and least fecund bathydraconid species. Using genetic and morphological data, we document and describe the larval stages of this unique species, offer a novel characteristic to distinguish it from the morphologically similar bathydraconidPrionodraco evansiiand use the sampling locations to infer a possible spawning area ofA. nudicepsalong the western Antarctic Peninsula. These results provide important baseline information for locating, identifying and studying the biology ofA. nudiceps, an important component of the Southern Ocean ecosystem.
