Leptagonus frenatus (Gilbert, 1896).

Sawback Poacher. To 32 cm (12.6 in) TL (Glubokov and Orlov 2008). Pacific coast of Hokkaido, Japan, Sea of Okhotsk, Kuril Islands to Norton Sound, Bering Sea, including Commander– Aleutian Islands Chain, and Stalemate and Bowers Banks (Mecklenburg et al. 2002) to Observatory Inlet, northern British Columbia (Mecklenburg et al. 2002). Benthic; depth: 18–1,124 m (60–3,687 ft) (min.: Eschmeyer and Herald 1983; max.: Hoff and Britt 2005). Recently classified by some authors in Sarritor (e.g., Saveliev et al. 2019); originally in Odontopyxis (see Sheiko and Mecklenburg 2004). A specimen in the University of Washington, Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture Fish Collection, UW 028802, captured in Puget Sound, was a misidentified Bathyagonus pentacanthus (Gilbert, 1890).
