Abstract
The first finding of the rare species Melamphaes pachystomus in the northeastern part of the Pacific Ocean is reported. The species has been previously known only by the type series (three specimens in total) from the southeastern part of this ocean. Our new finding substantially contributes to the knowledge of its habitat.
