Aristostomias scintillans (Gilbert, 1915).
Shining Loosejaw. To 23 cm (9 in) TL (Fitch and Lavenberg 1968). Russian north-western Pacific (Orlov and Tokranov 2019); Gulf of Alaska (59°09’N, 146°06’W) (Stevenson et al. 2009) to southern Baja California (23°17’N, 120°33’W) (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California); also near equator (7°N) (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California). Report from Bering Sea probably in error (Mecklenburg et al. 2002). Depth: 29–1,357 m (95–4,451 ft) (min.: Aron 1960; max.: NWFSC-FRAM), and perhaps surface (Orlov and Tokranov 2019) and 2,001 m (6,563 ft) (Milkova et al. 2016).
