Short description
Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale): 7; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 10. Well-developed opercular spines present. Distance between anal opening and the beginning of the anal fin is 27-41 percent of the distance between the base of pelvic fin and the anal opening (Ref. 31632).
A mesobenthic-pelagic species living mainly above the bottom (Ref. 31632). Inhabits tops of seamounts (Ref. 559). Aggregations hovered over sand patches near steep, irregular cliffs (Ref. 7460).
