. Atlas and zoogeography of common fishes in the Bering Sea and Northeastern Pacific / M. James Allen, Gary B. Smith. Fishes Bering Sea Geographical CHINOOK SALMON, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha (Walbaum 1792) Salmonidae: Salmonids Literature Reported from the Arctic Ocean to northeastern Honshu, Japan, and San Diego, California (Fredin et al. 1977; Eschmeyer and Herald 1983). Range extends south in midocean to about lat. 40°N (Hubbs 1946; Hart 1973; Major et al. 1978), north to the Anadyr River in the western Bering Sea and east to the Coppermine River, Canada, in the Arctic (Hart 1973); also successfully introduced into New Zealand waters (Lee et al. 1980). Anadromous, migrating to 4827 km upstream (Browning 1980) and found to 200 m in depth in the ocean (Fedorov 1973a). Survey data Found from Port Clarence, Alaska, Zhemchug Canyon on the eastern Bering Sea slope, and the Islands of the Four Moun- tains in the Aleutian Islands south to Santa Cruz, California. Depth range 25 to 375 m, most frequently ( of occurrences) on the outer shelf between 100 and 150 m, and of occurrences from depths <300 m. Survey data are within known geographic range, but extend maximum known depth to 375 m. Because this is a pelagic species generally found at depths of less than 128 m (Major et al. 1978), the fish were probably taken near the surface over deeper water. Conclusions Zoogeography Life zone Range Depth Primarily Arctic-oceanic and northeastern boreal Pacific Fluvial-oceanic (neritic) From the Coppermine River in Arctic Canada to northeastern Honshu, Japan; also found from San Diego, California, and lat. 40°N in midocean, and introduced into New Zealand waters; migrates up to 4827 km upstream in rivers Surface to at least 200 m, possibly up to 375 m.
