Lestidiops pacificus (Parr, 1931). To at least 16.4 cm (6.4 in) SL (Harry 1953). Southern California 32°29’N, 117°32’W (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California); Gulf of Panama; Chile; north of New Zealand (Ambrose in Moser 1996); Colombia (Beltrán-León and Rios Herrera 2000). Larvae captured along Baja California coast from Ensenada, northern Baja California to San Ignacio, southern Baja California (Funes-Rodríguez et al. 2011). Epipelagic to bathypelagic (Ambrose in Moser 1996); depth: 50 to perhaps 1,003 m (164–3,290 ft). The deepest record was based on the maximum depth fished by a midwater trawl and may represent a catch shallower than the maximum depth. Considered a subspecies of Lestidiops jayakari by some authors (e.g., Mundy 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 63, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5053.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/5578008 : {"references": ["Harry, R.
