Abstract

Data on the distribution of juvenile rock-nosed grenadier Coryphaenoides rupestris in the northern Atlantic are provided. The results of studies of the size and age composition are presented, and specific features of vertical and horizontal distribution of juvenile individuals are analyzed. Directions of the subsequent study of the species in early ontogenesis are determined.
