Zenopsis nebulosa

Description

Zenopsis nebulosa (Temminck & Schlegel, 1845).

Mirror Dory. To 70 cm (27.6 in) TL (Roberts et al. 2015). Indo-Pacific (Fricke et al. 2020); western Pacific Ocean north to Peter the Great Bay, Sea of Japan (Kim and Milovankin 2019); central and southern California (Eschmeyer and Herald 1983) to Chile (Pequeño 1989). Off-bottom pelagic (Parin and Pakhorukov 2003). Depth: 30–800 m (100–2,624 ft) (min.: Fitch and Lavenberg 1968; max.: Nakabo in Nakabo 2002). We note that some records of this species may have been confused with the recently described Zenopsis filimentosa Kai and Tashiro, 2019.
