Ecologia
marinhas batidemersal; não migratória; intervalo de profundidade 50 - 1248 m (Ref. 112558), usually 50 - 550 m (Ref. 58452). Deep-water; 29°N - 19°S, 19°W - 15°E (Ref. 58452)
Eastern Atlantic: off the coast of tropical West Africa, from Mauritania to Angola. Range reported to extend to off southwest Africa near Cape Frio, Namibia (Ref. 6524).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 7.3 - 19.8, mean 14.2 °C (based on 93 cells).
Índice de diversidade filogenética (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00447 (0.00243 - 0.00821), b=3.09 (2.93 - 3.25), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Nível Trófico (Ref.
69278): 4.5 ±0.63 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 2.8 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1
growth studies.
Resiliência (Ref.
120179): médio(a), tempo mínimo de duplicação da população 1,4 - 4,4 anos (K=0.39(?); assuming tm>=2).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (35 of 100).
