Short description Khóa để định loại | Hình thái học | Sinh trắc học

Các tia vây lưng cứng (tổng cộng) : 0; Tia cứng vây hậu môn: 0. Caudal fin without a rippled dorsal margin and ventral lobe but with a strong subterminal notch; vertebral axis of caudal fin little raised above body axis (Ref. 13566). Dark brown with blackish markings on dorsal fins (Ref. 13566).

Sinh học     Tự điển (thí dụ epibenthic)

Occurs over muddy bottoms, on the upper continental and insular slopes and outer shelves (Ref. 244). Feeds mainly on small bony fishes and crustaceans, with squid a lesser item in the diet (Ref. 244). One of the two smallest living sharks (Ref. 13566). Ovoviviparous (Ref. 50449), with 1 to 2 pups in a litter (Ref. 244).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturities | Sự tái sinh sản | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | Ấu trùng

Ovoviviparous, embryos feed solely on yolk (Ref. 50449). 1-2 pups per litter, size at birth about 11 cm (Ref. 244).
