( See ETYFish ) ;   marleyi: In honor of Natal fisheries officer Harold Walter Bell-Marley (1872-1945), to whom Fowler was “indebted” for many “interesting” South African fishes,” this shark being “another of his numerous discoveries”. ( See ETYFish ) . More on author: Fowler . Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range Ecology Marine; benthopelagic; depth range 0 - 502 m (Ref. 247 ).

A cylindrical, dwarf dogfish shark with a long bulbous snout, small round eyes, and small gill slits; caudal fin paddle-shaped (Ref. 5578 ). Dark brown with conspicuous light-edged fins (Ref. 5578 ). Ventral surface covered with minute photophores (Ref. 6577 ). Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic) Probably oceanic (Ref. 5578 ). The holotype was caught off a beach, but a second specimen was taken in the Atlantic at night between the surface and 502 m (Ref. 247 ). Food unknown but may subsist on pelagic fish and invertebrates (Ref. 247 ). Probably ovoviviparous with very few young (Ref. 247 ).
