( See ETYFish ) ;   riveri: In honor of biologist-anthropologist Luis Hugo Howell-Rivero (1899-1986), for his contributions to Cuban ichthyology (this shark described from the north coast of Cuba). ( See ETYFish ) . Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range Ecology Marine; bathydemersal; depth range 700 - 1500 m (Ref. 55584 ). Deep-water; 30°N - 9°N Distribution Countries | FAO areas | Ecosystems | Occurrences | Point map | Introductions | Faunafri Western Central Atlantic: Cuba, northern Gulf of Mexico, and Panama. Size / Weight / Age Maturity: L m   ?   range ? - ? cm Max length : 46.0 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 244 ); 41.0 cm TL (female) Short description Morphology | Morphometrics Relatively slender, moderately long, narrow snout and relatively narrow, low caudal fin. Color uniform dark brown (Ref. 37039 ). First to third gill openings long as the distance between the nostrils (Ref. 6032 ). Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic) Found on the continental slopes. Oviparous, with one egg per oviduct laid at a time. Sexual dimorphism in adults unusually well-developed. Life cycle and mating behavior Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae Oviparous, paired eggs are laid. Embryos feed solely on yolk (Ref. 50449 ). Sexual dimorphism is evident in dentition of males (Ref. 49562 ). Males have longer teeth with fewer cusps (Ref. 51093 ) to make 'courtship biting' more effective (Ref. 49562 ).
