Notoliparis is a genus of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the family Liparidae, the snailfishes. These fishes are found in deep Oceanic trenches in the South Atlantic South Pacific and Southern Oceans.
==Taxonomy== Notoliparis was first proposed as a genus in 1975 by the Soviet ichthyologist Anatoly Petrovich Andriyashev when he described Notoliparis kurchatovi from off the South Orkney Islands which he also designated as the type species of the new genus. The genus is classified within the family Liparidae.
