Lestidiops neles

Description

* Lestidiops neles (Harry, 1953).

To 9 cm (3.5 in) SL (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California). Vicinity of Cabo San Lucas, southern Baja California to Colombia (Beltrán-León and Rios Herrera 2000), and near Islas Galápagos (3°19’S, 98°05’W) (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California). Larvae reported from along the Baja California coast from the Ensenada area, northern Baja California to San Ignacio, southern Baja California (Funes-Rodríguez et al. 2011). Epipelagic and mesopelagic; depth: 22–384 m (72–1,260 ft) (Robertson et al. 2017). A record of 2,000 m (6,560 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.
