Notolychnus valdiviae
Description
Notolychnus valdiviae (Brauer, 1904).
Topside Lampfish. To 3.2 cm (1.3 in) SL (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California). Circumglobal; western Pacific Ocean north to Japan (Nakabo in Nakabo 2002); northern California (Berry and Perkins 1966) to Chile (Pequeño 1989). Mesopelagic (Hulley and Paxton in Carpenter and De Angelis 2016); depth: surface to 850 m (2,789 ft) (min.: Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California; max.: Nafpaktitis et al. 1977). A record of 3,346 m (10,975 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.
