Etymology: Idiacanthus: Greek, idia = own privative + Greek, akantha = thorn (Ref. 45335).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
marinhas batipelágico; intervalo de profundidade 1239 - 2000 m (Ref. 58018). Deep-water; 25°S - 60°S
Subtropical to temperate waters in the southern hemisphere, probably limited by the subtropical convergence. Incidentally found in sub-Antarctic waters of the Southern Ocean.

Descrição breve
Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 0; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 55 - 63; Espinhos anais: 0; Raios anais moles: 37 - 42. Pelvic fins with 6 rays (females), absent in males.
Mesopelagic species (Ref. 75154). Pronounced sexual dimorphism: females are black, with well developed canine teeth, barbel and pelvic fins with six stripes. Males are dark-brown, have no teeth on maxilla and neither barbel nor pelvic fins (Ref. 47377). Apparently, females live below 500 m during the day and perform vertical migration at night to shallower depths; males always in deep water, ca 1,000-2,000 m (Ref. 5169).
