Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 8 - 10; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 28-30; Taggstrålar i analfenan 0; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 28 - 30; Ryggkotor: 53 - 54. Lateral line scales 88-104 (upper), 61-77 (lower).

Biologi     Ordlista (t.ex. epibenthic)

At 12-15 cm TL, semi-pelagic juveniles become demersal at 150-400 m depth (Ref. 55957). Adults migrate to deeper habitats at depths greater than 1,000 m (Ref. 55957). Utilized as food fish (Ref. 4931).

May spawn for the first time from around 8-10 years of age (Ref. 71843).
