生物學特性     字彙 (例如 epibenthic)

Biology poorly known. But its minute eyes suggest that it may be adapted to turbid water with poor visibility, as in large tropical rivers and muddy estuaries. Newborn specimens are from 56 to 61 cm long. Viviparous (Ref. 50449). Its notoriety may have stemmed from its widespread confusion with C. leucas. But this species is potentially dangerous as well because of its size and large teeth, though its reputation as a man-eater is still unproven.

生物學特性知道的很少。 但是它的細小眼顯示出,它可能是用不良的能見度適應混濁的水,如較大時熱帶的河與泥濘的河口。 幼生標本從 56 到 61 公分長。 胎生的.(參考文獻 50449) 它的惡名可能起源於它的廣泛分佈與 C. leucas 混淆. 但是這種是可能危險恐怕最好由於它的大小與大的齒, 雖然它的名譽仍然作為一個食人者是未被證明。
