Etymology: Latimeria: Taken from Miss Courtenay Latimer worker in the East London Musuem; she contributed to the update of the fish (Coelacanth, Latimeria chalumnae) (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: Miss Marjorie Courtenay-Latimer (1907–2004) was the first Curator of the Museum at East London, South Africa, which was based on the Latimer family collection and holds the only remaining Dodo egg. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Western Central Pacific: Celebes Sea, north of Sulawesi. Also Ref. 33470.
Size / Vikt / Age
Presumably on rocky slopes in deep water of 150-200 m. Fricke et al. (Ref. 33470) observed two specimens of 120 and 140 cm length in a deep carbonate cave at a depth of 155 m (water temp. 17.8-20.1°C).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 14.9 - 19.4, mean 17.4 °C (based on 5 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD50 = 1.2539 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01175 (0.00476 - 0.02897), b=3.03 (2.82 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 4.5 ±0.62 se; based on food items.
Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Mycket låg, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid mer än 14 år (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Very high vulnerability (84 of 100).
