North Pacific Crestfish. To at least 100 cm (39.4 in) SL ( Craig et al. 2004). Possibly circumglobal ( Fricke et al. 2020); well offshore, to 610 km (379 mi) off Point Arena, northern California and near coast to San Diego, southern California ( Craig et al. 2004). Depth: surface ( Fitch and Lavenberg 1968), intertidal to at least 1,100 m (3,608 ft) (min.: Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California; max: Fitch and Lavenberg 1968) and probably to greater depths. Previously regarded as belonging to the nearly worldwide species Lophotus lacepede , the North Pacific Ocean form was shown to be a different species ( Craig et al. 2004).
