Korte beschrijving
Determinatiesleutels | Morfologie | Morfometrie
Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 0; Anale stekels: 0. Posterior nostril immediately anterior to eye. Lateral line system on head with pit but no pores. Pyloric caeca 8 to 10.
Most abundant in waters deeper than 750 m and feeds mainly on benthic organismsm crustaceans and also on polychaetes. Caught singly but also in aggregations of more than 100 individuals (Ref. 1371). Parasites of the species include trematodes, cestodes, nematodes, acanthocephalans and copepods; attached in the intestines, gills and fins (Ref. 5951). Minimum depth (Ref. 58426).
