Etymology: carinata: Named for the alignment of tubercles forming keels along the disk edge and sides of tail ('carinata = keeled).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecology
Marine; bathydemersal; depth range 750 - 800 m (Ref. 40826). Deep-water
Southeast Pacific: Sala y Gomez Ridge.
Size / Weight / Age
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 7.3 cm SL (female)
Dorsal soft rays (total): 6; Vertebrae: 18. Unique tubercles low, without spines, having only 3 or 4 facets, the ridges between facet surfaces drawn out into scutes, each scute bordered by a comb of fine teeth. Disc margin short, 35% of SL (40% in S. erythrina and S. stellulata of equal size or larger). Tubercles along sides of tail shaped like toothed scutes, aligned in keel like series on each side of tail (Ref. 40826).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.6250 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02344 (0.00968 - 0.05678), b=2.94 (2.73 - 3.15), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.2 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
