Notoscopelus bolini is a species of lanternfish in the family Myctophidae.

[3] Notoscopelus bolini can be distinguished from other members of the genus by the fact that adult males do not have a luminous gland at the top of the caudal peduncle, but do have large patches of bioluminescent tissue on the cheek and above the eye.

These patches are separated from the eye by dark pigmented skin.

It also occurs in the deep parts of both the eastern and western Mediterranean Sea.

[1] In a study of the feeding habits of mesopelagic fish in the northwestern Atlantic, it was found that the diet of N. bolini consisted mostly of krill, with a smaller proportion of copepods and some fish larvae.
