पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 7; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 6. Metamorphosed females distinguished by the following characteristics: length of illicium less than 120% SL; distal escal prolongation with spinules at base and several unpigmented, digitiform filaments on lateral margins; absence of escal papillae; posteromedial papilla at base of escal bulb and second on illicium below bulb; absence of proximal escal filaments; dentary teeth relatively long (longest 2.6-5.2% SL), in four or five longitudinal series; rays of caudal fin less than 30% SL (Ref. 86949).

Minimum depth from Ref. 58018.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 0.3 - 10.8, mean 1.8 °C (based on 41 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01995 (0.00906 - 0.04395), b=3.01 (2.83 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.2 ±0.7 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (21 of 100).
