Etymology: Monomitopus: Greek, monos = one + Greek, mitos, -ou = sting of a lyre + Greek, pous = foot (Ref. 45335).

Environment: milieu / Klimaatzone / Diepte / distribution range
Ecologie
marien bathydemersaal; diepte 730 - 930 m (Ref. 34024). Deep-water; 5°C - 10°C (Ref. 31446); 30°N - 23°N
Western Atlantic: off eastern Florida, off northern Cuba, and in the eastern Gulf of Mexico off the Florida Keys.
Grootte / Gewicht / Leeftijd
Maturiteit: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 53.5 cm SL mannelijk / geslacht onbekend; (Ref. 31446)
Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 104 - 108; Anale zachte stralen: 85 - 92.
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
Uncommon species (Ref. 34024). Feed on euphausiid shrimps, gammarid amphipods, fish scales and a midwater myctophid (Ref. 31446). Feeding probably takes place on or just above the bottom, utilizing both benthic and benthopelagic crustaceans and fishes (Ref. 31446). Reproductive strategy possibly similar to other members of this family featuring oviparity, with oval pelagic eggs floating in a gelatinous mass (Ref. 205).
