Atlantic cod  (Gadus morhua)

Atlantic cod range from the north and eastern coast of North America, around the southern tip of Greenland across the north Atlantic to the waters around Iceland, the Faroes, the North Sea and the Barents Sea. It is found all around the British coast, reaching south to the Bay of Biscay.

Atlantic cod can be found in coastal waters with depths of 500 to 600 metres, and in the open ocean.
