. Atlas and zoogeography of common fishes in the Bering Sea and Northeastern Pacific / M. James Allen, Gary B. Smith. Fishes Bering Sea Geographical ARMORHEAD SCULPIN, Gymnocanthus galeatus Bean 1881 Cottidae: Sculpins Literature Reported from Hokkaido, Japan, to the Bering Sea (but not in the Sea ot Okhotsk) and from Amchitka Island in the Aleutian Islands east to Wales Island, British Columbia (Shmidt 1950; Quast and Hall 1972; Eschmeyer and Herald 1983). at depths of 0 to 167 m (Howe 1981; Eschmeyer and Herald 1983). Survey data Found in Pervenets Canyon on the northwest slope of the eastern Bering Sea, south of Saint Lawrence Island, southeast along the inner and middle shelf of the Bering Sea, and from Agattu Island in the Aleutian Islands east to Stevenson Entrance east of Afognak Island in the Gulf of Alaska. Depth range 25 to 625 m, most frequently ( of occurrences) on the middle shelf between 50 and 100 m, and of occurrences from depths <150 m. Survey data provide a more precise northern limit in the Bering Sea, extend the known range to the west in the Aleutian Islands, and extend the maximum known depth of occurrence. However, deep records for this species are anomalous and must be regarded as questionable.
