Etymology: Cyclopteropsis: Greek, kyklos = round + Greek, pteron = fin + Greek, opsis = similar to, shape (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: Vladimir Konstantinovich Bražnikov (or Braschnikow) (1870–1921) was a Russian zoologist, ichthyologist and entomologist with an interest in Diptera who lived in Tokyo for many years. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecology
Marine; demersal; depth range 30 - 303 m (Ref. 58496). Polar
Northwest Pacific: Sea of Okhotsk to Pacific Ocean off northern Kuril Islands. Recently, collected adult specimens of Cyclopteropsis brashnikowi have features of Cyclopteropsis popovi that the former may be the senior synonym of the latter (Ref. 48811).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): -1 - 1.9, mean 0.9 °C (based on 41 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5078 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02089 (0.00774 - 0.05639), b=3.03 (2.80 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.

Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.2 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
