Lycodes rossi
Malmgren, 1865
.
Threespot Eelpout
. To
31 cm
(
12.2 in
) or
38 cm
(
15 in
) TL (
Mecklenburg
et al.
2018
). Nearly circumpolar;
Greenland
eastward to Laptev Sea; Beaufort Sea off Alaska (as far west as
155°W
) eastward to Dease Strait,
Canada
. Not verified from Chukchi Sea (
Mecklenburg
et al.
2016
). Benthic; depth:
42–467 m
(
138–1,532 ft
); juveniles as shallow as
9 m
(
30 ft
) (min.:
Mecklenburg
et al.
2016
; max. Personal communication: University of Washington, Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture Fish Collection, Seattle, Washington). There are no clear distinctions between
L. rossi
and
L. reticulatus
and thus data on distributions are problematic (
Mecklenburg
et al.
2011
,
Mecklenburg and Steinke 2015
).
