Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Vertebrae: 44 - 45. This species is distinguished from its congeners by the number of pectoral-fin rays 15-16 (vs. 12-14); fangs on premaxillary head 2 (vs. 1); with tiny dermal spinules on body of specimens larger than 48.7 mm present (vs. absent); it further differs from C. asper by supraorbital canal pores 8 (vs. 9) (Ref. 82429).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Found in the meso- to bathypelagic zones, with adults more frequently collected below 900 m (Ref. 82429).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5078   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01096 (0.00410 - 0.02933), b=3.03 (2.80 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.8   ±0.2 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (17 of 100).
