Bathylagoides wesethi (Bolin, 1938). Snubnose Blacksmelt . To about 13.5 cm (5.3 in) SL (Savinykh 1999). Oregon (Matarese et al. 1989) to off Bahía Magdalena (24°10.9’N, 113°06.9’W), southern Baja California (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California), Gulf of California (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California), and well-off Ecuador (03°30’S, 112°01.5’W) (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California). Pelagic and mesopelagic; depth: 25–1,130 m (82–3,706 ft) (min.: Childress and Nygaard 1973; max.: Personal communication: Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History Fish Collection, Los Angeles, California), and perhaps to 4,268 m (13,999 ft) (Personal communication: Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History Fish Collection, Los Angeles, California). The deepest capture was made with a midwater trawl that may have taken the specimen shallower than the deepest tow depth. : Published as part of Love, Milton S., Bizzarro, Joseph J., Cornthwaite, Maria, Frable, Benjamin W. & Maslenikov, Katherine P., 2021, Checklist of marine and estuarine fishes from the Alaska-Yukon Border, Beaufort Sea, to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, pp. 1-285 in Zootaxa 5053 (1) on page 47, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5053.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/5578008 : {"references": ["Savinykh, V.
