Abstract |
Three specimens of Cryptopsaras couesi have been recorded from Norwegian waters, one in 1992, one in 1993 and one in 1995. These are the first records east of the Shetland-Faroe Channel, although the species is recorded regularly from west and northwest Icelandic waters. Two of the specimens were taken in commercial fish trawls at depths of 450 to 600 m along the Norwegian continental slope and one specimen at Bear Island. |
