L. Vinogradov (1948) includes the bathyal zone of the Bering, Okhotsk and Japan Seas in sub- Arctic regions, and the northern part of the Sea of Okhotsk in the glacial. Fig. 366.

A number of investigators recognize the peculiar biogeography of the northern and northwestern parts of the Sea of Okhotsk, with their large number of cold-water, Arctic and Arctic boreal species. Without including these regions in the lower Arctic sub-region a number of investigators give them special biogeographical names—co-arctic (K. Brodsky, 1952), glacial (L. Vinogradov, 1948) and others. The Tartary Strait can to some extent be included in those regions. This problem will be solved when a precise qualitative method is laid down as the basis of the system of zonation, as has been done for the southwestern part of the Barents Sea (Z. Filatova, 1938). T. Shchapova (1948) uses the geographical distribution of sea-weeds in her division of the north-boreal Pacific sub-region into north-boreal (all the northern part of the Bering Sea and of the Sea of Okhotsk) upper-temperate boreal (southern part of the Bering Sea, Aleutian Islands, central and southern parts of the Sea of Okhotsk and the northern part of the Sea of Japan);.
