. Atlas and zoogeography of common fishes in the Bering Sea and Northeastern Pacific / M. James Allen, Gary B. Smith. Fishes Bering Sea Geographical FLATHEAD SOLE, Hippoglossoides elassodon Jordan and Gilbert 1880 Pleuronectidae: Righteye Flounders Literature Reported from the northern Kurile Islands and western Kamchatka to the Korak Coast of the western Bering Sea, from there south to the Alaska Peninsula, west in the Aleutian Islands to Amchitka Island, and southeast to Point Reyes, California (Simenstad et al. 1977; Fadeev 1978). Reports of this species in the Chukchi Sea (Quast and Hall 1972) are probably of the Bering flounder, Hippoglossoides robustus, rather than of the flathead sole (Fadeev 1978). Reports of this species from the Sea of Japan (Quast and Hall 1972) are probably of the red flounder, Hippoglossoides dubius Schmidt 1904, which is regarded as a species rather than as a subspecies of the flathead sole by Fadeev (1978) and Sakamoto (1984). Reported from 0 to 1050 m (Hart 1973; Fedorov 1973a). Survey data Found from Cape Olyutorski in the western Bering Sea, north to the Anadyr Gulf and Saint Lawrence Island, and south throughout the middle and outer shelf of the eastern Bering Sea; in the Aleutian Islands, as far west as Stalemate and Bowers Banks and west of Bering Island in the Commander Islands; from the Aleutians, southeast to Monterey, California. Depth range 25 to 875 m, most frequently ( of occurrences) on the outer shelf between 100 and 150 m, and of occurrences from depths <250 m. Survey data extend the southern and Aleutian Island limits.
