More on authors: Bertelsen & Nielsen . Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range Ecology Marine; bathypelagic; depth range 1500 - 3910 m (Ref. 34506 ).

Size / Weight / Age Maturity: L m   ?   range ? - ? cm Max length : 5.7 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 34506 ) Short description Morphology | Morphometrics Dorsal soft rays (total): 82-95; Anal soft rays : 56 - 60. M. nigeli differs from the other species of the genus by the following combination of characters: head long with elongate, pointed snout and almost straight jaw, skull length 6.0-7.0% TL, rostral fang strongly hooked with distal part in a neatly right angle to dorsal profile of skull, predorsal length 14.5-18.5% TL, anterior anal fin ray below dorsal fin ray nos. 15-21, and 5 lateral, subdermal spots of pigmentation (Ref. 34506 ). Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic) Four "Discovery" specimens were taken in closing nets between 1510 and 3910 m depth, three of these 1500-2000 m, and one 23 m above the bottom. The "Vityaz" specimen was taken between 3000 m and the surface (Ref. 34506 ).
