Scopelogadus bispinosus (Gilbert, 1915). Twospine Bigscale . To 17.5 cm (6.9 in) SL (Roberts et al. 2015). Southwest of La Perouse Bank (48°08’N, 126°36’W), British Columbia (Peden and Jamieson 1988) to Chile (Ebeling and Weed 1963). Mesopelagic and bathypelagic; depth: surface to 4,335 m (14,220 ft) (min.: Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California; max.: Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California). Previously considered a subspecies of Scopelogadus mizolepis (Günther, 1878). A record of 6,200 m (20,336 ft) (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California) was based on the maximum depth fished by a beam trawl and may represent a catch shallower than the maximum 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 99, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5053.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/5578008 : {"references": ["Gilbert, C.
