Benthalbella dentata (Chapman, 1939). Northern Pearleye . To 28 cm (11 in) TL or more (Mecklenburg et al. 2002). Japan (Nakabo in Nakabo 2002), to Sea of Okhotsk, and western Bering Sea (Orlov 1998), eastern Bering Sea (58°30’N, 177°52’W) (Maslenikov et al. 2013), and Gulf of Alaska (Johnson 1974), to Isla Guadalupe, central Baja California (Watson and Sandknop in Moser 1996); also at 10°21’N, 96°12’W (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California), and 10°31.3’N, 126°00’W (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California). Primarily mesopelagic; depth: 59–1,502 m (196–4,927 ft) (min.: Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California; max.: Shinohara et al. 2009) and perhaps to 2,083 m (6,832 ft) (Milkova et al. 2016). A report of a catch at 3,400 m (11,155 ft, Fedorov 2000 (Personal communication: Russian Academy of Science Ichthyological Collecton at Saint Petersberg)) may be problematic, as this is a mesopelagic species; the specimen may have entered the net above the maximum depth of the tow (Love et al. 2005). : 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 62, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5053.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/5578008 : {"references": ["Nakabo, T.
