Pacific Flatnose or Small-scaled Blue Hake. To 84 cm ( 33.1 in ) TL ( Korostelev et al. 2020 ). Southern Japan (not in Sea of Japan ) to Sea of Okhotsk, to Bering Sea and Gulf of Alaska, to Gulf of California ( Allen and Smith 1988 , Cohen in Cohen et al. 1990 ). Benthopelagic over continental slope; depth: about 61–3,408 m ( 200–11,178 ft ) (min.: NWFSC-FRAM; max.: Kamikawa 2017 ). For some time, A. microlepis was classified as a junior synonym of Antimora rostrata (Günther, 1878) , and reports of much larger A. microlepis or specimens reported from the South Pacific likely pertain to A. rostrata . A report of an Antimora rostrata capture off the Pacific Coast of central America ( Morera et al. 2019 ) may refer to A. microlepis .
