Brotulataenia nielseni Cohen, 1974. To 31.2 cm (12.3 in) SL (Machida et al. 1997). Indo-Pacific; western Pacific Ocean north to Miyagi Prefecture, Japan (Ohashi et al. 2012); northern Baja California (32°02’N, 117°48’W) (Personal communication: Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History Fish Collection, Los Angeles, California) to south of equator (14°46’S, 93°38’W) (Cohen 1974). Pelagic and perhaps benthopelagic (Nielsen and Cohen in Nielsen et al. 1999); depth: taken in nets fished between surface and 300 m (984 ft) to 1,200 m (3,936 ft) (Cohen 1974). A record of 940 m (3,083 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. : 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 81, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5053.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/5578008 : {"references": ["Cohen, D.
