Description
Summary:Scopelarchus analis (Brauer, 1902). Blackbelly Pearleye. To 12.6 cm (5 in) SL (Johnson in Whitehead et al. 1984). Circumglobal; western Pacific Ocean north to Japan (Fujii in Masuda et al. 1984); southern California and Baja California (Johnson in Whitehead et al. 1984) to Chile (Pequeño 1989). Mesopelagic; depth: 0–4,000 m (13,120 ft) (Kamikawa 2017). While Fricke et al. (2020) question this species occurrence in the eastern Pacific, we note that there are many Scripps Institution of Oceanography fish collection specimens from both California and Baja California that were identified by Cynthia Klepadlo.
