East Siberian cod

The East Siberian cod (Arctogadus borisovi), also known as the toothed cod, is an Arctic fish closely related to Arctic cod and also related to true cods (genus Gadus). It differs in appearance from the arctic cod by having pronounced chin barbel. Their sides and back are dark olive and the belly are light grey with dark spots. They may grow up to 60cm and on the average weigh 1.5kg.

They are found off the western half of the Canadian coast and the coasts of Siberia and also off northern and southern coasts of Greenland. The fish prefers living close to the sea floor at depths of 15 to 40 m, but it sometimes enters estuaries. They may also be found under pack ice. They are of little economic value.
