Gymnothorax pseudomelanosomatus Loh, Shao & Chen in Loh et al., 2015:32. (type locality: Changbin, Taitung county, southeastern Taiwan).

Remarks. A deep-living species that is only represented by the two type specimens collected from southeastern Taiwan and one specimen from southwestern Taiwan (USNM 395050); it is easily confused with Gymnothorax melanosomatus , which was also described from same region.
