Descrição breve
Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 0; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 12 - 14; Espinhos anais: 0; Raios anais moles: 26 - 29; Vértebras: 43 - 46. Distinct from closely related species in having a much greater distance between ventral and anal fins, a correspondingly larger number of photophores in the ventral and lateral series.
Mesopelagic, primarily at about 125-300 m depth at night and 520-700 m during the day (Ref. 35800). Oviparous, with planktonic eggs and larvae (Ref. 35800). Also Ref. 58302.
