Nannobrachium fernae

Description

Nannobrachium fernae (Wisner, 1971).

To 9.1 cm (3.6 in) SL (Zahuranec 2000). Oregon to northern California (Wisner 1976). Depth: surface (nightlight; Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California), 200 m (656 ft) or more (Wisner 1976). A record of 4,939 m (16,200 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. Considered Lampanyctus fernae (Wisner, 1971) in Fricke et al. (2020).
