Sebastes miniatus (Jordan & Gilbert, 1880). Vermilion Rockfish . To 76 cm (30 in) TL (Phillips 1957). Zaikof Bay, Montague Island, Prince William Sound, Alaska (O’Connell et al. 1992) to Islas San Benito, central Baja California (Chen 1971). Benthic; depth: juveniles in shallow water (M.L., unpubl. data); adults 12–478 m (39–1,568 ft) (min.: O’Connell et al. 1992; max.: Bradburn et al. 2011). A single juvenile was captured in a Fort Bragg, northern California, tide pool (Craig et al. 2017). Note, this “taxon” is composed of two species, Vermilion Rockfish ( Sebastes miniatus ) and the tentatively denoted Sebastes crocotulus , Sunset Rockfish (Hyde et al. 2008). Because of previous confusion between the two species, the precise maximum sizes, geographic ranges, and depth ranges of each species is unknown. Genetically identified S. miniatus are known from Neah Bay, Washington to Punta Baja, northern Baja California and S. crocotulus from Monterey, central California to Colnett Bank, northern Baja California. : 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 110, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5053.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/5578008 : {"references": ["Phillips, J.
