Probably to 25 cm ( 9.8 in ) SL (Post in Smith and Heemstra 1986 ). Indo-Pacific; western Pacific Ocean north to Ryukyu Islands (Nakabo in Nakabo 2002 ); central California ( 36°46’N , 122°35’W ) (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California) to Chile ( Pequeño 1989 ). Epipelagic and mesopelagic (Ambrose in Moser 1996 ); depth: 24 m ( 80 ft ) to perhaps 2,100 m ( 6,888 ft ) (min.: Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California; max.: Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California). The maximum depth record was based on the maximum depth fished by a midwater trawl and may represent a catch shallower than the maximum depth. “Probably valid as Lestidiops macrurus (Ege, 1933) , (H.- C.
