ຄີຫຼັງຂອງປາ (ຄີອ່ອນ) (ທັງໝົດ) : 6 - 7; ຄີກົ້ນຂອງປາ: 5 - 6. Metamorphosed females distinguished by the following characteristics: have filaments on the dorsal surface of head just behind the base of the illicium; length of illicium 168-198% SL; presence of short filaments on base of illicium; escal bulb gradually tapering into a conical, spinulose darkly pigmented distal prolongation, length 12-28% SL; escal bulb and distal prolongation bearing low unpigmented papillae; short filaments present on distal prolongation, absent on base of escal bulb; absence of posterior pair of close set illicial appendage; long dentary teeth (longest tooth 3.4-7.1% SL), three or four longitudinal series in posterior part of jaw; short rays of caudal fin (27.5-35% SL) (Ref. 86949).
Bathy- and mesopelagic species (Ref. 75154).
