Ekologi
marina bentopelagisk; ej vandrande; djupintervall 411 - 673 m (Ref. 1371). Deep-water; 28°N - 14°N, 165°W - 149°W (Ref. 1371)

Size / Vikt / Age
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 31.0 cm TL hane/ej könsbestämd; (Ref. 1371)
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 0; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 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).
