The new generic name Nemoossis is proposed for the albulid species Pterothrissus belloci Cadenat 1937, a species endemic to the eastern Atlantic Ocean. Nemoossis differs from other genera in the family Albulidae as follows: longer dorsal-fin base, absence of supraneural bones, dorsal-fin rays [51-57 (mode 52)], vertebrae [total number 88-92 (91)], pored lateral-line scales [79-89 (84)], pre-dorsal-fin scale rows [3-8 (8)], head length [24-32 % (mean 30 %) of SL], pectoral-fin length [16-21 % (19 %) of SL], pre-dorsal-fin length [27-34 % (30 %) of SL], dorsal-fin base length [53-64 % (60 %) of SL], postorbital length [13-16 % (14 %) of SL], and upper caudal-fin length [18-31 % (24 %) of SL]. MNHN 1938-0002, 192 mm SL, is designated as a lectotype for P. belloci, and Bathythrissa dorsalis Guenther 1877 is shown to be a junior synonym of P. gissu.
