Wikipedia definition
3. Poromitra crassiceps​The poromitra crassiceps (commonly called crested bigscale, also called large-headed midnight fish, crested melamphid, one-horned melamphaid fish) is a species of deep sea fish in the ridgehead family. While the fish with the common name crested bigscale in Alaskan waters had formerly been identified as p. crassiceps, it is now believed that Alaskan crested bigscales are actually poromitra curilensis, and that p. crassiceps is restricted to the Atlantic ocean.
