Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 3; Raggi anali molli: 3. Female esca with oblong, distal prolongation of bulb, as long as diameter of escal photophore, with internal (light-guiding) structure bifurcated at tip and bearing branched, distal filaments; series of 6-7, long, branched filaments on each side of bulb, the proximalmost emerging from base of escal bulb; small conical, posterior appendage behind escal pore. Dense concentration of subdermal pigment on caudal peduncle (Ref. 42949).
Males unknown (Ref. 42949).
