Clinocottus acuticeps (Gilbert, 1896). Sharpnose Sculpin . To 6.4 cm (2.5 in) TL (Miller and Lea 1972). Attu Island, Aleutian Islands (Gilbert and Burke 1912) to Big Sur River, central California (Miller and Lea 1972); one record from Santa Catalina Island (33°18’N, 118°21’W) (NWFSC-FRAM). Benthic; depth: intertidal to 114 m (373 ft) (min.: Mecklenburg et al. 2002; max. NWFSC-FRAM). Although previously thought to be an intertidal and shallow subtidal species, we note that the NWFSC-FRAM database records 34 individuals captured between 49 and 114 m (161–373 ft). Often in brackish water, occasionally in fresh water (Morrow 1980). Perhaps more properly in the genus Artedius (Knope 2013).
