Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecología
marino bentopelágico; no migratorio; rango de profundidad 411 - 673 m (Ref. 1371). Deep-water; 28°N - 14°N, 165°W - 149°W (Ref. 1371)
Eastern Central Pacific: apparently confined to the Hawaiian Islands.
Tamaño / Peso / Age
Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 31.0 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 1371)
Espinas dorsales (total) : 0; Espinas anales: 0. Snout short, conical, with a black margin along its leading edge and supranarial ridges, but not a ling the median nasal ridge. Scales small, uniformly covered with small, fine conical spinules. First dorsal fin with a large black blotch on its distal portion.
Not normally taken by commercial fishers because of the absence of a deep-water trawl fishery where it occurs (Ref. 1371).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 5.4 - 6.9, mean 5.8 °C (based on 3 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
