Description

Lycodes palearis Gilbert, 1896.

Wattled Eelpout. To 62 cm (24.4 in) TL (Personal communication: University of Washington, Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture Fish Collection, Seattle, Washington). Northern Sea of Okhotsk to Beaufort Sea (71°22’N, 156°19’W) (Mecklenburg et al. 2011), over the continental shelf in the Bering Sea, and off the Aleutian Islands to Oregon (Mecklenburg et al. 2002). Benthic; depth: about 2 m (7 ft) or less to 925 m (3,035 ft) (min.: Miller et al. 1977; max.: Allen and Smith 1988), nearly always less than 200 m (656 ft) (Mecklenburg et al. 2002). Rarely recorded from very shallow water, L. palearis were caught in about 3 m (10 ft) of water at low tide at Jackson Beach, San Juan Island, on two different days (Love et al. 2005).
