Sebastes ciliatus
Sebastes ciliatus is a marine fish from the genus of rockfishes. It lives in the cold waters of the northern Pacific Ocean near rocky and stony seabed areas.
Sebastes ciliatus differs from related rockfish by its special ciliated scale edges and fin shape. It plays an important role in the marine ecosystem as a mid-level predator and serves as food for larger fish, seals and seabirds.
