Wikipedia summary

The shortspine thornyhead (Sebastolobus alascanus) is a deep-sea rockfish known for its oversized head and eyes, earning nicknames like “idiot fish.” Native to the North Pacific, it inhabits demersal zones and supports sustainable fisheries.wikipedia+1

This species features a large head with a spiny ridge on the cheek, an elongate body up to 80 cm long, and bright red or orange-red coloration often with white patches and black fin markings. It has 15-17 dorsal spines and lives 80-100 years, with females growing larger and maturing around 18 cm at 8-10 years.fisheries.noaa+1

Shortspine thornyheads range from the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands to Baja California, preferring depths of 55-465 meters (up to 1,600 m max), often over soft bottoms in low-oxygen zones. Juveniles stay shallower, migrating deeper with age; they adapt via faster ventilation and anaerobic enzymes for hypoxia.montereybayaquarium+2

These predators consume shrimp, crabs, amphipods, zooplankton, brittle stars, bivalves, and other benthic invertebrates. Common predators include sablefish, arrowtooth flounder, sperm whales, sharks, and occasionally other thornyheads.montereybayfisheriestrust+2

Spawning occurs December-May along the U.S. West Coast (April-May in Gulf of Alaska), releasing pelagic gelatinous egg masses of 20,000-450,000 eggs.wikipedia+2

U.S. stocks off Alaska, British Columbia, and the Pacific Coast are healthy, not overfished, and sustainably managed under groundfish plans with bycatch limits and habitat protections. IUCN lists it as Endangered (2000 assessment), but fisheries earn “Best Choice” ratings.fisheries.noaa+2
