Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 0; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 12 - 14; Espinas anales: 0; Radios blandos anales: 16 - 19. Anal organs 13-14; the elevated, anteriorly displaced second ventral organ (anterior of the vertical from first ventral organ) and the low anal organ and gill raker counts easily separate this species from all other congeners (Ref. 39633).
High-oceanic and mesopelagic; occurs in the upper 212 m at night.
