Description
Melamphaes janae Ebeling, 1962.
8.6 cm (3.4 in) SL (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California). Indo-Pacific; southern California (33°15’N, 120°54’W) (Personal communication: Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History Fish Collection, Los Angeles, California) to Peru (Nakaya et al. 2009). Mesopelagic; depth: 200–3,329 m (656–10,920) (min.: Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California; max.: Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California). The maximum depth record was based on the maximum depth fished by a midwater trawl and may represent a catch shallower than that depth.
