Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ökologie
seewasser demersal; tiefenbereich 35 - 600 m (Ref. 82251), usually 251 - 300 m (Ref. 82251). Subtropical; 24°N - 47°S, 107°W - 74°W
Eastern Pacific: distribution is not precisely known; but may extend from Mazatlán, Mexico to Chile.
Size / Gewicht / Alter
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Common length : 35.0 cm TL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 9330)
Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 0; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 64 - 73; Afterflossenstacheln: 0; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 52 - 58. Pectoral fins rather small, about 2 times in head in ocular side and about 2.5 times in head on blind side. Pelvic fin on ocular side slightly larger than on blind side. Caudal fin round. Body brownish, with obscure darker spots on body and fins (Ref. 27363).
This species inhabits soft bottoms (Ref. 9330); from the littoral zone (35 m, shallowest depth reported in Ref. 9330) up to 600 m (Yañez and Barbieri, 1974.in Ref. 82251:833). Common depth range was taken from a study done in northern Chile. Stomach contents include mainly the squat lobsters (Pleuroncodes monodon and Cervimunida johni) and the deep-sea shrimp (Heterocarpus reedi) (Ref. 82251). Exploited on a local level with trawl nets and is utilized fresh or as fishmeal.
