Redbanded rockfish In 1995, 280 tons were caught by longline off British Columbia. Often, though, this fish is taken as bycatch during trawling operations targeting other species, such as the yelloweye rockfish ("S. ruberrimus") and halibut ("Hippoglossus stenolepis"). Bycatch of this species in trawls off the coast of British Columbia well exceeded 1,000 tons in 1992. It has dropped below 300 tons per year since then due to better monitoring. This fish is host to a number of parasitic copepods, including "Chondracanthus pinguis", "C. triventricosus", "Clavella parva", "Colobomatus kyphosus", "Naobranchia occidentalis", "Peniculus asinus", and "Neobrachiella robusta". Redbanded rockfish Sebastes babcocki is a
Fish anatomy and various processes which project from the centrum or arches. An arch extending from the top of the centrum is called a neural arch, while the hemal arch or chevron is found underneath the centrum in the caudal (tail) vertebrae of fish. The centrum of a fish is usually concave at each end (amphicoelous), which limits the motion of the fish. This can be contrasted with the centrum of a mammal, which is flat at each end (acoelous), shaped in a manner that can support and distribute compressive forces. The vertebrae of lobe-finned fishes consist of three discrete bony elements.
