Nannobrachium ritteri
Description
Nannobrachium ritteri (Gilbert, 1915).
Broadfin Lampfish. To 13.9 cm (5.5 in) SL (Savinykh 1999). Eastern North Pacific Ocean south of Aleutian Islands and Gulf of Alaska (Mecklenburg et al. 2002) to southwest of Cabo San Lucas, southern Baja California (about 19°N, 115°W) (Zahuranec 2000). Depth: 8–1,253 m (26– 4,110 ft) (min.: Personal communication: Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History Fish Collection, Los Angeles, California; max.: NWFSC-FRAM). Records from Central or South America have not been verified (Zahuranec 2000). A record of 3,988 m (13,080 ft) (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California) was based on the maximum depth fished by a midwater trawl and may represent a catch shallower than the maximum depth. Considered Lampanyctus ritteri Gilbert, 1892 in Fricke et al. (2020).
