Ecologia
marinhas demersal; intervalo de profundidade 20 - 325 m (Ref. 114953). Temperate; 27°S - 36°S, 150°E - 154°E (Ref. 114953)
Western Pacific: endemic to eastern Australia.
Length at first maturity / Tamanho / Peso / Idade
Maturity: Lm 45.5, range 43 - 48 cm
Max length : 55.0 cm TL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 114953)
Found on the continental shelf (Ref. 6871, 75154). Oviparous. Distinct pairing with embrace. Young may tend to follow large objects, such as their mother (Ref. 205). Eggs are oblong capsules with stiff pointed horns at the corners deposited in sandy or muddy flats (Ref. 205). Egg capsules measure 5.7 cm long and 3.2 cm wide (Ref. 41308). Males reaches maturity at 43-48 cm TL. Biology poorly known; probably have suffered population declines in recent years (Ref. 114953).
Life cycle and mating behavior
Maturities | Reprodução | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | Larvas
Oviparous, paired eggs are laid. Embryos feed solely on yolk (Ref. 50449). Distinct pairing with embrace. Young may tend to follow large objects, such as their mother (Ref. 205).
