Issue
Food items consist of fishes (e.g. catfishes), insects, crustaceans and nematodes (Rosa et al., 1987). Nothing is known of its reproductive biology, but pups are free-swimming at least by 12 cm DL. Recent references: Barriga (1991), Wilkens & Dohse (1993), Compagno & Cook (1995), Lovejoy (1996).
