Fishes Bering Sea Geographical PACIFIC VIPERFISH, Chauliodus macouni Bean 1890 Chauliodontidae: Viperfishes Literature A pelagic species that has been reported in the North Pacific, from the Bering Sea to Japan and central Baja California, and in the Gulf of California (Hart 1973; Howe 1981; Eschmeyer and Herald 1983), at 76 to 4231 m (Fedorov 1973a). Survey data Found from Navarin Canyon on the northwest slope of the eastern Bering Sea and Agattu Island in the Aleutian Islands discontinuously to the Santa Barbara Channel, California. Depth range 25 to 975 m, with of occurrences above the bathybenthal slope between 550 and 600 m, and at depths >250 m. Survey data provide a more specific northern limit and a shallower depth limit. The Pacific viperfish is a mesopelagic species and hence was captured primarily along the slope. The distribution found in the survey data reflects that of demersal trawl tows rather than necessarily that of the species. Only a few mesopelagic midwater tows were taken over the Aleutian and North Pacific Basins.
