Descrição breve
Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 3; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 14 - 16; Espinhos anais: 1; Raios anais moles: 8. This species is distinguished by the following characters: first gill arch with 19-21 rakers; vertebrae 26-27, including 11 abdominal ones; haemal arch of first caudal vertebra without a spine ('spur'); D III,14-16; A I,8; P 15; ventral fin I,8; ventral fin begins slightly anteriorly or beneath vertical of the posterior margin of pectoral fin insertion; anal fin begins beyond vertical of last ray of dorsal fin (Ref. 90261).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
Juvenile fish of this species were reported to be seined with closing fishing gear at depths of 290-1060 m, while adults were seined at depths of 1483-1548 m. It was suggested that unlike adults, juveniles perform vertical migrations (Ref. 90261).
