al. 2002). Between the time <strong>of</strong> its description and the early 1970s, researchers considered the Redbanded<br />
Rockfish to be synonymous with the Flag Rockfish, S. rubrivinctus. Work by Rosenblatt and Chen (1972)<br />
distinguished these species. However, this misidentification added confusion to various fishery studies<br />
and it is now assumed that most or all “Flag Rockfish” previously reported from Oregon to Alaska are<br />
Redbanded Rockfish.<br />

Sebastes chlorostictus (Jordan & Gilbert, 1880). Greenspotted Rockfish. To 45.6 cm (18.2 in) FL (Moser<br />
