There has been considerable confusion over this name in the past. The species treated as Anago [ = Ariosoma ] anago by Asano (1962) is in fact Ariosoma meeki ( Jordan & Snyder, 1901 ); the true A. anago was treated by Asano as Ariosoma anagoides ( Bleeker, 1852 ) . Most subsequent authors followed Asano. Previous records of Ariosoma anago from Taiwan are reidentified by us as A. meeki , and records of A . anagoides are reidentified as A. anago . Known from Japan and Taiwan ; southern limit of distribution uncertain.
