Description

Myctophum nitidulum Garman, 1899.

Pearly Lanternfish. To 10.5 cm (4.1 in) SL (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California). Circumglobal; western Pacific Ocean north to Japan (Nakabo in Nakabo 2002) and east of Kuril Islands (Savinykh et al. 2004); off Brookings, Oregon (Personal communication: Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History Fish Collection, Los Angeles, California) to Chile (Pequeño 1989). Mesopelagic (Hulley and Paxton in Carpenter and De Angelis 2016); depth: surface to 1,537 m (5,041 ft) (Orlov and Tokranov 2019), and perhaps to 4,268 ft (13,999 ft) (Personal communication: Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History Fish Collection, Los Angeles, California). The latter record is based on a midwater trawl catch and the depth of capture may have been above the maximum tow depth
