Abstract
New data on the Fedorovʼs eelpout Lycenchelys fedorovi near the Kuril Islands are presented. It has been established that the species is one of bycatch species on the bottom trawling fishery in the Pacific waters off the Ketoy and Simushir islands. The eelpout was found at the depth range of 300–515 m at the water temperature near the bottom of 1.8–3.0 °C. The catches of this species in examined area evidence in favor of wider geographical distribution along the Kuril Islands.
