Short description
पहचान कुंजी | आकृति विज्ञान | मौरफोमैटरिक्स
पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 0; पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 95 - 98; गुदा कांटा: 0; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 74 - 77. Body relatively short; eye diameter much shorter than snout, mouth ends well posterior to eye; many needle-like teeth; short, sharp opercular spine, preopercle unarmed; 2 median basibranchial tooth patches (Ref. 34024).
A benthic species found on the continental slope (Ref. 75154). Uncommon species (Ref. 34024). Reproductive strategy possibly similar to other members of this family featuring oviparity, with oval pelagic eggs floating in a gelatinous mass (Ref. 205).
