Description
Summary:Icelus spiniger Gilbert, 1896. Thorny Sculpin. To 28 cm (11 in) TL (Mecklenburg et al. 2002). Sea of Okhotsk to Commander–Aleutian Chain, and Bering Sea to Cape Navarin, western Bering Sea (Mecklenburg et al. 2002), to northern Chukchi Sea (Mecklenburg et al. 2015), and eastern Bering Sea at least as far northward as 61°20’N (Lauth and Nichol 2013), to La Perouse Bank, southern British Columbia (Mecklenburg et al. 2002). Benthic; depth: 30–770 m (98–2,526 ft) (Mecklenburg et al. 2002). Mecklenburg et al. (2016) report that an undescribed Icelus, closely related to I. spiniger, likely lives at least in the northern Bering and Chukchi Seas.
