Raniceps raninus (Linnaeus, 1758) View in CoL

A Tadpole fish, Gadidae ( Fig. 4C View Figure 4 ), was collected on 24 Jan. 2018 by the fisherman Mr Dylan Le Brettevillois on the commercial trawler Corydalis from Cherbourg. It was collected off Northeast of Barfleur (Cotentin, France, English Channel), at about 49.92°N, – 0.93°W, at around 50 m depth. The fish measured roughly 16+ cm long (tail missing). The specimen was not preserved. Recorded by N. Goascoz. A second Tadpole fish, ( Fig. 4D View Figure 4 ), was observed by F. Roche and photographed by Yvelyse Mathieu while scuba diving on 10 Aug. 2018 in the Bay of Lampaul (Ouessant, Finistère, France, Celtic Sea), at 48.4503°N, – 5.1224°W at 30 m depth ( Roche et al., 2019a). The individual, estimated to be 30 cm in length, was encountered on the bottom of a semi-shaded tunnel. This species is uncommonly recorded due to its cryptic habitat where it avoids most fishing gears ( Legendre, 1950; Quéro et al., 1980; Costa and Quéro, 1988; Iglésias et al., 2019).
