Lampanyctus festivus Tåning, 1928. Festive Lanternfish . To 15.7 cm (6.2 in) (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California). Circumglobal; western Pacific Ocean north to Japan; in eastern Pacific Ocean as far northward as central California (35°58’N, 122°32’W) (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California). Mesopelagic; depth: 0–1,800 m (5,904 ft) (Porteiro et al. 2017). A record of 3,600 m (11,808 ft) (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California) was based on the maximum depth fished by a midwater trawl and may represent a catch shallower than the maximum depth. The eastern Pacific form could be L. festivus , Lampanyctus tenuiformis (Brauer, 1906) or an unrecognized species (Benjamin Frable). : 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 69, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5053.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/5578008 : {"references": ["Porteiro, F.
