Short description Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría

Espinas dorsales (total) : 0; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 81 - 91; Radios blandos anales: 61 - 69. Second ray of dorsal fin very long, with a conspicuous dark, fringed broad membrane. First 3 or 4 dorsal fin rays generally blackish in adults but only the elongate second ray is dark in immature fishes.

Found on the upper 100 m of the continental shelf. Feeds on small fishes and invertebrates (Ref. 4704). Minimum depth reported taken from Ref. 52678 but has been caught in depths inferior to 10m (Ref. 57407).
