Short description
Κλείδες προσδιορισμού | Μορφολογία | Μορφομετρία
Μαλακές ραχιαίες ακτίνες (συνολικά) : 5; Μαλακές εδρικές ακτίνες: 4; Σπόνδυλοι: 19. This species is distinguished from its congeners in having the following characters: subtriangular disc in outline; illicial trough and esca fully visible in ventral view; tubercles on dorsal surface with 6-8 facets (Ref. 92977); a shelflike rostrum extending anteriorly well beyond the mouth; a dorsal, relatively wide, leaf-shaped dorsal escal lobe slightly bisected ventrally; an illicial cavity completely square in outline and completely visible from the ventral view; tubercles absent on ventral surface of disk (Ref. 40825, 55719). Additional characters due to its redescription (Ref. 55719) are: rostrum width 21-29% of head length; tubercles on the dorsal surface of the disk about half the diameter of those on the lateral margin; and, 13-15 large lateral-line scales on the tail (Ref. 55719).
Holotype taken from a depth of 1,500 m (Ref. 33390). Minimum depth from Ref. 58018.
