Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologie
marien demersaal; standvastig; diepte 24 - 220 m (Ref. 9785). Tropical; 21°S - 35°S, 79°W - 73°W (Ref. 3810)

Grootte / Gewicht / Leeftijd
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 22.0 cm SL mannelijk / geslacht onbekend; (Ref. 128312); common length : 14.0 cm SL mannelijk / geslacht onbekend; (Ref. 3810)
Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 10; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 9; Anale stekels: 3; Anale zachte stralen: 7. Suborbital spine absent. Preopercle with 3 transverse scale rows. Pectoral and pelvic fins not reaching to level of origin of anal fin. Upper lobe of caudal fin produced into a long trailing filament. First dorsal spine short. A line drawn upwards from posterior edge of the suborbital reaching the dorsal profile at or behind origin of dorsal fin. Axillary scale present. Color: upper part of body red, shading through rose-pink on the sides to pearly-white on the ventral surface. Can be distinguished from N. bathybius by having a more slender body, wider interorbital and shorter pectoral fins.
Inhabits sandy or muddy bottoms. Feeds on small crustaceans.
