Scorpaena guttata Girard 1854

Description

Scorpaena guttata Girard, 1854.

California Scorpionfish. To 47 cm (18.5 in) SL (Gartman and Groce 1998); about 57.9 cm (22.3 in) TL based on conversion factors in Love et al. (1987). Santa Cruz, central California to Gulf of California (Miller and Lea 1972). Benthic; depth: intertidal to 266 m (872 ft) (min.: Metz 1912; max.: City of San Diego 2020). A maximum depth record from the NWFSC-FRAM database of 861 m (2,824 ft) is very probably in error.
