Cryptopsaras couesii Gill, 1883. Triplewart Seadevil . To 35.8 cm (14.1 in) TL (Pietsch 2009). Circumglobal, with overall latitudinal range of 63°N to 43°S (Pietsch 1986); Greenland; western Pacific Ocean north to Japan; New Zealand; Hawai’i (Pietsch 1986); British Columbia (49°29’N, 127°17’W) (Weil et al. 2015) to Peru (Pietsch 1986). Depth: 75–4,000 m (246–13,123 ft), but mostly taken at 500–1,250 m (1,640 –4,101 ft) (Pietsch 1986); reported at surface (Orlov and Tokranov 2019), but without documentation. Based on analyses of mtDNA, Bañón et al. (2019) found that Pacific and Atlantic specimens might represent cryptic species. : 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 90, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5053.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/5578008 : {"references": ["Pietsch, T.
