Taxonomic Remarks
Information to be completed.
Entorno: milieu / zona climática / rango de profundidad / gama de distribución
Ecología
marino demersal; rango de profundidad 0 - 195 m (Ref. 106604). Temperate
Eastern Indian Ocean: off Western Australia.
Tamaño / Peso / Edad
Madurez: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 256 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 106604)
The maximum size was based on jaws of a specimen in the personal collection of M. Harris (Harris, 2015, pers. comm.); but reported lengths up to 290 cm and 300 cm TL need further confirmation (Ref. 106604).
