Microancathus fedorovi

Microancathus fedorovi is a species of lumpfish native to the Northwest Pacific, where it is known from the northern Kuril Islands. It is a demersal fish that occurs at a depth range of 115 to 370 m (377 to 1213 ft).[1] FishBase lists this species as a member of Eumicrotremus, contrary to a 2015 revision by O. S. Voskoboinikova that established the genus Microancathus, in addition to describing the species M. tokranovi.[2]
