Lycodes turneri Bean, 1879 .

Estuarine Eelpout or Polar Eelpout. To 85 cm ( 33.5 in) SL ( Mecklenburg et al. 2018). Western Beaufort ( Mecklenburg et al. 2011), and Chukchi Seas to Bristol Bay in the eastern Bering Sea to about Cape Olyutorskiy in the western Bering Sea (Mecklenburg et al. 2002). Benthic; depth: 1–125 m ( 3–410 ft) (min.: Mecklenburg et al. 2011; max.: Allen and Smith 1988). Historically, this species, Lycodes mucosus , and Lycodes polaris have often been mistaken for one another. The AFS–ASIH fish names committee ( Page et al. 2013) calls this fish the Polar Eelpout, the name we prefer for L. polaris .
