There is a quaint finned x-wing of 9's in R57, which removes the 9 from R2C3 and solves the puzzle.

I met neither finned creatures nor remote pairs or bugs but used a skyscraper (cols 1 and 6) to remove 9 from r8c2 in this position and was done.

Code:

I used a 6-cell xy-chain at the end with pincer ends in R5C3(A) and R6C7(F), that takes out both <1>'s in R6C1 and R5C8.

Code:
+--------------------------+--------------------------+--------------------------+
| 48         1        48   | 2          7         6   | 3         5          9   |
| 6        C 79     B 79   | 3          5         1   | 4         8          2   |
| 3          2        5    | 4          8         9   | 17        6          17  |
+--------------------------+--------------------------+--------------------------+
| 24         8        24   | 9          1         7   | 6         3          5   |
| 7          6      A 19   | 5          3         4   | 2       -[1]9        8   |
|-[1]9       5        3    | 8          6         2   | 19 F      7          4   |
+--------------------------+--------------------------+--------------------------+
| 129        3        129  | 7          4         5   | 8         19         6   |
| 5        D 79       6    | 1          2         8   | 79 E      4          3   |
| 18         4        178  | 6          9         3   | 5         2          17  |

The 19s in R6C1 & R7C8 are 'remote', killing the 1 & 9 in R7C1, just one of sundry ways to do this, as has been stated.
