: 28 - 31. Pectorals long and slender, reaching beyond anus but not as long as head (Ref.

). Further south, in the transition zone, young are found from 200-300 m and older individuals between 200-500 m (Ref.
6885
). Oviparous, with planktonic larvae and eggs (Ref.

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.

): 1.1 - 7, mean 3.7 °C (based on 133 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804
): PD
50
= 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01096 (0.00451 - 0.02668), b=3.10 (2.89 - 3.31), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.

).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278
): 3.6 ±0.2 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
120179
): Low, minimum population doubling time 4.5 - 14 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
