Bolinichthys pyrsobolus
Description
Bolinichthys pyrsobolus (Alcock, 1890).
To 9.2 cm (3.6 in) SL (Hulley and Duhamel 2009). Indo-Pacific; well offshore of northern California to northern Baja California (Berry and Perkins 1966) and Isla Guadalupe, central Baja California (Personal communication: Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History Fish Collection, Los Angeles, California). Depth: 60 to more than 490 m (1,968 – 1,607 ft) (Hulley and Duhamel 2009). A deeper capture, 2,000 m (6,650 ft) (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California), was made with a midwater trawl that may have taken the specimen shallower than the deepest tow depth. Hulley and Duhamel (2009) report that specimens taken from the eastern Pacific may represent more than one species.
