“…The lycodine subgenus Furcimanus is distinguished from other members of the genus Lycodes by having forked pectoral fins and a ventral lateral line configuration. Until recently, Lycodes nakamurae (Tanaka, 1914) was the only representative of the subgenus Furcimanus known from the Sea of Japan (Lindberg & Krasukova, 1975;Toyoshima, 1985;Borets, 2000;Anderson & Fedorov, 2004;Stevenson & Sheiko, 2009). However, recently two species belonging to the subgenus-L. nishimurai Shinohara & Shirai, 2005 and L. pectoralis Toyoshima, 1985(Shinohara & Shirai, 2005Kim et al, 2006)-were added to the ichthyofauna of the Sea of Japan.…”

Two colour types were revealed in a zoarcid fish of the subgenus Furcimanus, genus Lycodes, in the Sea of Japan. A comparison of morphometric, meristic and genetic characters in dark coloured and light coloured individuals suggests that the two colour morphs represent a single species, determined to be Lycodes nakamurae (Tanaka, 1914). Variability in colouration within L. nakamurae and a lack of morphological or molecular characters distinguishing L. nakamurae from L. nishimurai Shinohara & Shirai, 2005 suggest that the latter should be considered a synonym of L. nakamurae (Tanaka, 1914). A record of L. pectoralis in the waters of the Republic of Korea is regarded as a misidentification. Thus, we conclude that only one species of the Lycodes subgenus Furcimanus, L. nakamurae, with dark and light colour morphs as well as specimens of intermediate colouration, inhabits the Sea of Japan.

“…Other presumed cognate pairs of species exhibit a similar pattern, overlapping latitudinally in British Columbia. For example, Lycodes beringi and L. diapterus are northern and southern cognate species in the eastern North Pacific that overlap latitudinally only in British Columbia and northern Washington (Stevenson and Sheiko, 2009).…”

This paper is a checklist of the fishes that have been documented, through both published and unpublished sources, in marine and estuarine waters, and out 200 miles, from the United States-Canadian border on the Beaufort Sea to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. A minimum of 241 families and 1,644 species are known within this range, including both native and nonnative species. For each of these species, we include maximum size, geographic and depth ranges, whether it is native or nonnative, as well as a brief mention of any taxonomic issues.
