Issue
Affinities: B. bartoni is similar to B. longipennis; the two are distinguished by predorsal scale counts; it is also similar to B. intermedius and B. tholloni but has fewer scales in transverse row between lateral line and dorsal fin origin (Ref. 80290).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
