description
Threadfin Slickhead. To 27.7 cm (11.1 in) SL (Kong and Meléndez 1991). Off north-western Vancouver Island (50 ° 03 ’ N, 129 ° 31 ’ W) (Gavin Hanke, pers. comm. to M. L.) to Chile (29 ° S) (Kong and Meléndez 1991). Depth: 300 – 2,155 m (984 – 7,068 ft) (min.: Robertson et al. 2017; max.: Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California). A record of 4,335 m (14,220 ft) (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California) was based on the maximum depth fished by a midwater trawl and may represent a catch shallower than the maximum depth.
