In the early-1960s a deepwater form of redfish (Sebastes mentella Travin) was found at depths more than 500 m on the continental slopes of Labrador and North Newfoundland.

The results of nearly 30-year observations showed that the form of non-maturing redfish had not changed. They were distributed along the continental slope northward of Div. 3K and the fish size increased from north to south. The distribution of this form of redfish was similar to that of non-maturing roundnose grenadier (Coryphaenoides rupestris).
