Etymology: Ariomma: Greek, ari = very, strength, superiority + Greek, omma = eyes (Ref. 45335).
More on author: Poey.
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Écologie
marin démersal; profondeur 0 - 500 m (Ref. 13628). Subtropical; 41°N - 4°N, 98°W - 50°W
Western Atlantic: New Jersey, USA and northern Gulf of Mexico through the Antilles (Ref. 13628) to the Guianas.
Taille / Poids / Âge
Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 25.0 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 26340); common length : 18.0 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 3269)
Épines dorsales (Total) : 12; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 15; Épines anales: 3; Rayons mous anaux: 14 - 15. Caudal peduncle slender, square in cross section, with 2 fleshy keels along each side (Ref. 26938).
Adults caught in shrimp grounds and deeper shelf areas, but occurrence is sporadic. Juveniles inhabit offshore surface waters, especially around floating weeds. Adults may be restricted to continental margins of the western Atlantic with juveniles found in the Caribbean expatriated from these populations (Ref. 51183). Feeds mainly on benthic crustaceans. An excellent food fish (Ref. 26938).
