Biology and Potential Use of Pacific Grenadier, Coryphaenoides acrolepis, off California
@inproceedings{Matsui1991BiologyAP, title={Biology and Potential Use of Pacific Grenadier, Coryphaenoides acrolepis, off California}, author={T Matsui and Susumu Kato and Susan E. Smith}, year={1991} }
Grenadiers (family Macrouridae) are the most abundant fish on most continental slope areas worldwide. Off California the Pacific grenadier, Coryphaenoides acrolepis, occurs in relatively large numbers and may have marketing potential. This repon provides information on the biology of the species and catch results from a number of scientific cruises. Catch data on several other species found together with Pacific grenadier, panicularly sablefish, Anoplopoma fimbria, are also given. The fish were…

The Most Abundant Grenadiers of the Russian Far East EEZ: Distribution and Basic Biological Patterns
- Environmental Science
- 2008
Giant grenadier Albatrossia pectoralis, popeye grenadier Coryphaenoi- des cinereus and Pacific grenadier C. acrolepis are commercially important in the Russian Far East and dominate on continental slopes at depths above 400-600 m, and giant grenadier has been shown to migrate along the Kuril Islands.
Evaluation of potential sustainability of deep-sea fisheries for grenadiers (Macrouridae)

Current and historic longevity estimates for the Pacific grenadier ( Coryphaenoides acrolepis) range from 6 to greater than 60 years. Age estimates in this study using growth increment counts in thin…
Life history of abyssal and hadal fishes from otolith growth zones and oxygen isotopic compositions
- Environmental Science

Hadal trenches are isolated habitats that cover the greatest ocean depths (6,500–11,000 m) and are believed to host high levels of endemism across multiple taxa. A group of apparent hadal endemics is…
Energy budgets and feeding rates of Coryphaenoidesacrolepis and C. armatus
- Environmental Science
- 2002
Energy budgets and estimates feeding rates for two macrourid fishes, Coryphaenoidesacrolepis, dominant in the bathyal eastern North Pacific, and the abyssal cosmopolitan species, C. armatus, are developed and the role of carrion as a food supply to the deep-sea benthos is investigated.
Energetic and life-history patterns of deep-sea benthic, benthopelagic and seamount-associated fish
- Environmental Science
- 1996
Large deep-water dispersed fish species are characterized by late maturity and an extended reproductive period, but these characteristics are less pronounced than in deep seamount-associated species, which may live in excess of 100 years.

The extent of vertical migration was greatest in the most offshore central water, intermediate for midcurrent species, and least for coastal, and nonmigrants included all Stylocheiron species, Thysanoessa gregaria, and two Nematobrachion species.

It is suggested that North Pacific grenadiers comprise a subspecies, C. armatus variabilis Günther, 1878, which is morphologically distinct from the subspecies C.armatus armatus (Hector, 1875) of the other areas.
