Raniceps raninus (Linnaeus, 1758) View in CoL
A large individual of Tadpole fish, Gadidae , was collect- ed on 24 March 2017 by the fisherman Mr Geoffrey Blaisel on the gillnetter Don Lubi II from Dunkerque. It was collected off Dunkerque (Pas de Calais, North Sea, France). Recorded by CL.
A second specimen ( Fig. 2F View Figure 2 ) was collected on 22 November 2017 during the survey EVHOE on the Research Vessel Thalassa from Ifremer institute. It was collected at Station V0506 (Southern Bay of Biscay, France), at 46.7035 / 46.6869 °N, –2.2320 / –2.1952 °W, at 20-25 m depth. The fresh specimen measured 118 mm TL, 105 mm SL, and the head was 34 mm long. Its weight was 18.2 g. The specimen was preserved for anatomical preparation with the collection No. MNHN-IC 2019-0096. Recorded by LB. The present specimens are new records for the Bay of Biscay where the species is uncommonly recorded due to its cryptic habitat avoiding most fishing gears ( Legendre, 1950; Quéro et al., 1980).
