Nansenia candida Cohen, 1958 View in CoL .

Bluethroat Argentine or White Pencilsmelt. To 23.9 cm (9.4 in) SL (Mecklenburg et al. 2002). (Length is from the paratype of Nansenia sanrikuensis Kanayama & Amaoka, 1983 , included by Mecklenburg et al. 2002 as a junior synonym of N. candida .) North Pacific off northern Honshu, Japan and southern Kuril Islands to southern Bering Sea ( Maslenikov et al. 2013), and Gulf of Alaska (Mecklenburg et al. 2002) to northern Baja California (30°N) ( Kawaguchi and Butler 1984). Larvae captured as far south as about San Ignacio, southern Baja California (Funes-Rodríguez et al. 2011). Primarily epipelagic and mesopelagic; depth: near surface to 2,025 m (6,581 ft) (min.: Mecklenburg et al. 2002; max.: DFO). A record of 3,988 m (13,080 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.
