. Atlas and zoogeography of common fishes in the Bering Sea and Northeastern Pacific / M. James Allen, Gary B. Smith. Fishes Bering Sea Geographical SMOOTH LUMPSUCKER, Aptocyclus ventricosus (Pallas 1769) Cyclopteridae: Lumpfishes and Snailfishes Literature Reported from Pusan, South Korea, to the Anadyr Gulf in the Bering Sea (outside the Sea of Okhotsk), throughout the Com- mander and Aleutian Islands, and southeast to Mathieson Channel, British Columbia (Shmidt 1950; Wilimovsky 1964; Ueno 1970; Quast and Hall 1972; Hart 1973), at depths of 0 to 1500 m (Fedorov 1973a). Survey data Found from southwest of Providence Bay on the Chukchi Peninsula to Attu Island in the Aleutian Islands, occurring primarily over the outer shelf and slope of the eastern Bering Sea and pelagically across the Aleutian Basin, and from the Aleutian Islands east to Baranof Island in southeastern Alaska. Depth range 25 to 975 m, most frequently ( of occurrences) between 50 and 100 m, and of occurrences from depths <850 m. Survey data show a distinct midwater distribution of this species across the Aleutian Basin. Since the species appears to occur pelagically with a modal depth of occurrence at 75 m, trawls made at greater depths may have actually captured the species nearer the surface than at the depth of tow.
