Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
marinhas batidemersal; intervalo de profundidade 68 - 622 m (Ref. 10482). Deep-water; 40°N - 4°S, 107°E - 150°W (Ref. 92340)
Pacific: Taiwan, Vietnam, Philippines, Indonesia, and Hawaii; northernmost record Emperor Seamounts. Apparently restricted to the North Pacific (temperate to tropical) and reports from New Zealand and New Caledonia are based on misidentifications.
Tamanho / Peso / Idade
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 13.5 cm TL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 28618); common length : 5.1 cm SL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 10482)
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 12; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 9; Espinhos anais: 3; Raios anais moles: 5. Lachrymal bone consisting of 2 spines over maxillary, first as a broad lobe, second as a broad spine pointing down; well marked suborbital ridge with 5 or 6 or more spines; second preopercle spine small or absent (Ref. 10482). Distinguished from other Hawaiian scorpionfishes by having only the anterior 4 or 5 tubed lateral line scales present, with the remainder of the lateral line absent; and presence of large melanophores on the caudal peduncle (Ref. 10482).
Benthic (Ref. 58302). Feeds on small fishes and crustaceans (Ref. 5755). Female specimens (4.70-5.59 cm SL) taken from the Emperor Seamounts have mature gonads filled with relatively large eggs of several developmental stages with the most developed eggs are ca. 0.4 mm in diameter (Ref. 92340).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 12.1 - 21.3, mean 16.2 °C (based on 121 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
