Descrição breve
Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria
Vértebras: 173 - 178. This species is distinguished by the following characters: gill opening very small; preanal length 36.9-39.8 %TL; predorsal length 14.5-15.9 %T; vertebrae in predorsal 12-14, preanal 47-52, total 173-178; differs from all other species except B. parvibranchialis by the very small gill opening, separated from the pectoral-fin base by a distance greater than the diameter of the gill opening (vs. less than diameter of gill opening); differs B. parvibranchialis by the position of the dorsal-fin origin, over base of pectoral fin (vs. behind base of fin), with a greater preanal length (vs. 33.3-37.1 %TL), greater predorsal length (vs. 12.6-14.5 %TL), a greater trunk to head ratio 1.7-2.1 (vs. 1.4-1.7), more predorsal vertebrae (vs. 7-10), more preanal vertebrae (vs. 43-48), fewer total vertebrae (vs. 181-189). This species appears to be somewhat smaller, the largest specimen 49.7 cm (vs. 71.5 cm) and lives in shallower water 388-527 m (vs. 432-1022 m) (Ref. 129617).
Cross section: oval.
