Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 10; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 43 - 44; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 40. Color in life unknown. Coloration in preserved specimen a fine peppering of chromatophores on body and a somewhat dark wedge-shaped area of pigments at caudal-fin base. Segmented caudal rays 11; dentary incisors with arrowhead-shaped tips; interorbital pores 4; body very elongate, depth about 12.7 in SL (Ref. 90102).
Based on characters common to the family, this species is oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114). Only record is of 2 specimens collected from 1919 by dynamite from Jolo Island, Philippines (Ref. 90102).

Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.6 ±0.7 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref.
