Short description Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri

Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 0; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 14 - 16; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 0; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 18 - 19; Ryggkotor: 36 - 38. 15-16 AO photophores; 7-8 tooth patches on lower limb of second gill arch; 35-38 lateral line organs (Ref. 36121). Pectoral fins well developed with rather robust, stout rays (Ref. 36121). Nearly black to metallic blue dorsally, lighter on sides, black in mouth and gill cavity; fins dusky, marked with fine wavy lines (Ref. 6885).

Biologi     Ordlista (t.ex. epibenthic)

Epipelagic to mesopelagic (Ref. 31442). Adults feed on Sagitta, young fishes, copepods, and euphausiids (Ref. 6885). Oviparous, with planktonic eggs and larvae (Ref. 31442). Lipid content is 14.2 % in fresh body weight and wax ester is 58% in total lipids (Ref. 9197).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 5.4 - 9.7, mean 7.1 °C (based on 27 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00794 (0.00398 - 0.01584), b=3.24 (3.07 - 3.41), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278):  3.4   ±0.45 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 3.1 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2 growth studies.
