Short description Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri

Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 5 - 6; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 4. Metamorphosed females of Bufoceratias thele differ from those of Bufoceratias shaoi in having a much smaller esca and a longer illicium (112-143% standard length versus 26-40% standard length), and from those of Bufoceratias wedli in lacking escal appendages (Ref. 51070).

Biologi     Ordlista (t.ex. epibenthic)

Males and larvae unknown (Ref. 51070). Specimens caught in bottom trawls (Ref. 86949).
