Etymology:
Torpedo:
Latin, torpere = be sluggish (Ref.
45335
)
.
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecology
Marine; demersal; depth range 1 - 350 m (Ref.
58488
). Tropical; 30°N - 11°N, 34°E - 85°E (Ref.
114953
)
Western Indian Ocean: Persian Gulf (Ref.

: 98 - 102. Disc-width shorter than its length, width and length about 1,60 to 1,80 times in total length; dorsal fins more or less rounded, its base 1,25 times in its length (Ref.

).
Found on coral reefs; as well as mud or sandy bottoms, from shallow water to a depth of 100 m (Ref.
30573
, Ref.
114953
). Mainly feeds on invertebrates and small reef fishes (Ref.

). Ovoviviparous (Ref.
50449
). Males reaches maturity at 28 cm TL (Ref.
114953
).

Larvae
Exhibit ovoviparity (aplacental viviparity), with embryos feeding initially on yolk, then receiving additional nourishment from the mother by indirect absorption of uterine fluid enriched with mucus, fat or protein through specialised structures (Ref.
50449
).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
