Careproctus cypselurus ( Jordan & Gilbert, 1898) View in CoL .

Falcate Snailfish or Forktail Snailfish. To 37.4 cm (14.7 in (Mecklenburg et al. 2002). A record of 54 cm (21.3 in) SL ( Kamikawa 2017) is without documentation and is likely in error (James Orr). Pacific Ocean off Honshu, Japan to Kuril Islands and Sea of Okhotsk ( Kido 1988) to Bering Sea (Mecklenburg et al. 2002), Gulf of Alaska (Personal communication: University of Washington, Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture Fish Collection, Seattle, Washington) to northern California (35°26.5’N, 121°44.2’W) (Personal communication: University of Washington, Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture Fish Collection, Seattle, Washington); at least several captures reported from further south (e.g., central California (34°44’N), Weinberg et al. 2002; southern California (32°56’N), NWFSC-FRAM), but without voucher specimens. Depth: 35–1,993 m (115–6,539 ft) (min.: Orlov and Tokranov 2011; max.: Mecklenburg et al. 2002).
