Краткое описание
определительные ключи | морфология | морфометрия
колючие лучи спинного плавника (общее число) : 0; членистые (мягкие) лучи спинного плавника (общее число) : 152 - 160; колючие лучи анального плавника: 0; членистые (мягкие) лучи анального плавника: 6 - 7; позвонки: 114 - 121. Body and tail silvery in color; dorsal base blackish (Ref. 6551). Branchiostegal rays: 4-6 (Ref. 36609). Pelvic fins absent in adults.
Mesopelagic species (Ref. 6808). Adults feed on lantern-fishes (Myctophidae) and possibly euphausiid crustaceans (Ref. 6739). Oviparous, with planktonic larvae (Ref. 36609). They have the ability to discharge dark brown fluid from the ink-sac when alarmed.
