Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 19 - 24; Raggi anali molli: 2 - 4.
Some specimens have been taken in surface tow nets and with nightlight and dipnets; others taken in a dredge sample (Ref. 5316). Ovoviviparous (Ref. 205). The male carries the eggs in a brood pouch which is found under the tail (Ref. 205). Found in sand, mud and coral bottoms in 2-45 m (Ref 90102).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 25.5 - 29.2, mean 28.3 °C (based on 1112 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00037 (0.00016 - 0.00085), b=3.18 (2.99 - 3.37), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
