Ecología
marino batidemersal; rango de profundidad 205 - 330 m (Ref. 34024). Deep-water
Western Central Pacific: Philippines to New Caledonia.
Tamaño / Peso / Edad
Madurez: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 13.7 cm SL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 31524)
Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 91 - 92; Radios blandos anales: 76; Vértebra: 53 - 54. The ventral fins reach beyond the origin of anal fin. The hind margin of preoperculum has two spines. There are eleven (11) long rakers on the anterior gill arch. The anterior ocellus is at the origin of the dorsal fin, while the second and larger ocellus is posterior to the anus.
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
Rare species (Ref. 34024) found to feed on gastropods (Ref. 31524). Reproductive strategy possibly similar to other members of this family featuring oviparity, with oval pelagic eggs floating in a gelatinous mass (Ref. 205).
