Ecología
marino bentopelágico; no migratorio; rango de profundidad 90 - 1500 m (Ref. 40643), usually 360 - 800 m (Ref. 1371). Temperate; 61°N - 24°N, 81°W - 40°W

Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 42.0 cm NG macho / no sexado; (Ref. 58426)
Espinas dorsales (total) : 0; Espinas anales: 0. Dorsal fin with an extremely elongated ray, its length longer than head length. Longest pelvic-fin ray reaching beyond the posterior end of the anal-fin base. Olive on sides, belly pale; the margins of the dorsal, caudal and anal fins darker.
Epibenthic (Ref. 58426). Minimum depth at 90 m (Ref. 1371). Most abundant between 360 and 800 m. Feeds mostly on crustaceans (especially euphausiids, shrimps and amphipods (Ref. 5951)) but also on mollusks and fishes (Ref. 1371).
