Photonectes margarita (Goode & Bean, 1896). Sooty Dragonfish . To 39.6 cm (15.6 in) SL (Gibbs and Barnett in Quéro et al. 1990). Circumglobal; western Pacific Ocean north to Japan (Fujii in Masuda et al. 1984); Off northern California (40°54’N) (NWFSC-FRAM) to northern Baja California (Berry and Perkins 1966) and Isla Guadalupe, central Baja California (Personal communication: Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History Fish Collection, Los Angeles, California). Depth: surface to 3,290 m (10,791 ft) (Personal communication: Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History Fish Collection, Los Angeles, California). Note: Photonectes intermedius Parr, 1927, thought to be synonymous with P. margarita by some (i.e., Prokofiev 2019), may be a separate species and is found in California waters (Cynthia Klepadlo, pers. comm. to M.L.). Perhaps a species complex (Prokofiev 2019). : 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 60, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5053.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/5578008 : {"references": ["Quero, J.
