Scopelosaurus harryi
Description
Scopelosaurus harryi (Mead, 1953).
Scaly Paperbone or Scaly Waryfish. To 32 cm (12.6 in) SL (Fujii in Masuda et al. 1984). Northern Japan (Balanov et al. 2009), Sea of Okhotsk (Fujii in Masuda et al. 1984), Pacific Ocean north of Japan, Bering Sea (Bertelsen et al. 1976), British Columbia (as far north as 53°25’N, 133°03’W) (Milkova et al. 2016) to southern Baja California (20°N) (Sazonov 1998). Primarily mesopelagic; depth: 0– 1,310 m (4,298 ft) (min.: Orlov and Tokranov 2019; max.: Mecklenburg et al. 2002). A record of 4,500 m (14,760 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
