Holocephali (chimaeras) > Chimaeriformes (Chimaeras) > Rhinochimaeridae (Longnose chimaeras)
Etymology: Neoharriotta: neo-, from neos (Gr.), new, i.e., a new genus related to Harriotta (See ETYFish); carri: in honor of James K. Carr (1914‒1980), former Under Secretary, U. S. Department of Interior, for “his great personal interest and counsel in the [Bureau of Commercial Fisheries’] exploratory fishing programs” (See ETYFish).
Eponymy: James K Carr (1914–1980) was Under Secretary at the US Department of the Interior (1961–1964). [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 8.8 - 17, mean 10.6 °C (based on 31 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.6289 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00195 (0.00085 - 0.00449), b=3.14 (2.94 - 3.34), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.7 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilience (Ref. 120179): Low, minimum population doubling time 4.5 - 14 years (Assuming Fec <100).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (50 of 100).
