Etymology: Arnoglossus: Greek, aros, -oy = lamb + Greek, glossa = tongue (Ref. 45335).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
marino demersale; distribuzione batimetrica ? - 215 m (Ref. 86942). Temperate
Western Pacific: Japan. Recently reported from the Chesterfield Islands (Ref. 11897). Possibly a synonym of Arnoglossus brunneus.
Size / Peso / Age
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 22.0 cm TL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 9824)
Spine dorsali (totale) : 0; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 108 - 113; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 84 - 89. Similar to A. japonicus, but differs from it by having larger values for meristic characters, ctenoid scales on ocular side, shorter distance between dorsal margin of head and eye about 1/3 of eye diameter, and a dark blotch on pectoral and pelvic fins. The male has an elongated 2nd dorsal ray and a darker blotch on the paired fins.
