Classification / Names Common names | Synonyms | Catalog of Fishes( genus , species ) | ITIS | CoL | WoRMS | Cloffa Elasmobranchii (sharks and rays) > Squaliformes (Sleeper and dogfish sharks) > Etmopteridae (Lantern sharks) Etymology: Etmopterus: Greek, ethmos, -ou = sieve or ethmoides bone + Greek, pteron = wing, fin (Ref. 45335 ) . More on author: Günther . Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range Ecology Marine; pelagic-oceanic; depth range 220 - 1620 m (Ref. 44037 ), usually 400 - 600 m (Ref. 124555 ). Deep-water; 29°S - 59°S Distribution Countries | FAO areas | Ecosystems | Occurrences | Point map | Introductions | Faunafri Indian Ocean, Southern Pacific and Southern Atlantic (Ref. 106604 ). Reported from off the western Cape coast but the identity of South African specimens is questionable (Ref. 127434 ). Length at first maturity / Size / Weight / Age Maturity: L m   ?   range ? - 75 cm Max length : 86.0 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 122636 ); max. published weight: 3.6 kg (Ref. 122636 ) Short description Morphology | Morphometrics Dorsal spines (total): 2; Dorsal soft rays (total): 0; Anal spines : 0; Anal soft rays : 0. A large, heavy-bodied lanternshark with a big head (Ref. 5578 ), bladelike unicuspidate teeth in lower jaw and teeth with cusps and cusplets in upper jaw, stocky body, conspicuous lines of denticles on body, conspicuous black markings on underside of body and tail, with tail marking short and not extending far posteriorly (Ref. 247 ). Dark brown or black in color, possibly darker below (Ref. 26346 ). Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic) Found on outermost continental shelves and upper slopes (Ref. 247 ). Feeds on bony fishes including lanternfish, barracudina, synaphobranchid eels, oreo dories, hake, rattails, bathylagids, idiacanthids; also on squids (including histioteuthids and ommastrephids), octopuses, euphausiids, mysids, penaeid shrimp, salps, sponges and ribbonworms (Nemertina) (Ref. 124555 ). Bioluminescence observed, with the dorsal photophores, flank markings, and brighter pectoral fin and claspers are likely to be used for intraspecific communications and the ventrally emitted light is likely to be used for counterillumination (Ref. 123656 ). Ovoviviparous (Ref. 205 ), with 10-13 in a litter, size at birth about 18 cm (Ref. 6871 ) to possibly 30 cm (Ref. 124555 ), Minimum depth reported taken from Ref. 247. Life cycle and mating behavior Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae Ovoviviparous, with 10-13 in a litter (Ref. 6871 ). Size at birth about 18 cm (Ref. 6871 ).
