وصف مختصر
مفاتيح التعريف | الوصف الخارجي | قياسات المظهر الخارجي
الأشواك الظهرية (المجموع) : 0; شوكة شرجية: 0. A slender, dwarf catshark with 2 equal-sized dorsal fins and a long tape-like caudal fin (Ref. 5578). Grey-brown in color (Ref. 5578).
Found on the upper continental slope and outer shelf (Ref. 244). Feeds on small bony fishes, crustaceans and cephalopods (Ref. 244). Ovoviviparous (Ref. 50449), with 2 young in a litter (Ref. 244). Geographic or bathymetric segregation of populations by sex probably occurs as most specimens taken off Natal were male (Ref. 244).
Ovoviviparous, embryos feed solely on yolk (Ref. 50449). Bears two young (Ref. 5578). Size at birth between 15 and 17 cm (Ref. 244).
