Gadus macrocephalus
Tilesius, 1810
.
Gray Cod,
Pacific Cod
, or True Cod. To
120 cm
(
47.2 in
) TL (
Morrow 1980
). Arctic-boreal waters of Pacific and Atlantic Oceans (Atlantic range now includes
Gadus ogac
Richardson, 1837
) (
Mecklenburg
et al.
2011
). Chukchi and Beaufort Seas (across
Canada
to west
Greenland
to Gulf of Saint Lawrence) (
Mecklenburg
et al.
2011
); Yellow Sea off Manchuria,
China
to Bering Sea, Aleutian Islands, and Gulf of Alaska (Mecklenburg
et al.
2002) to Carlsbad (
33°08’N
,
117°35’W
), southern California (Personal communication: Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History Fish Collection, Los Angeles, California). Perhaps also in White Sea (
Mecklenburg and Steinke 2015
). Benthic, also pelagic over deep water; marine and brackish waters (
Dyldin and Orlov 2017
); depth: intertidal (
Miller
et al.
1980
), near surface to
1,280 m
(
4,198 ft
) (
Orlov and Tokranov 2019
). We consider
Gadus ogac
Richardson, 1836
to be a synonym (
Mecklenburg
et al.
2018
), but considered a separate species in
Fricke
et al.
(2020)
.
