Etymology: Lampanyctus: Greek, lampas, -ados = torch + Greek, nykte = night (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: Percy J Turner of Suva, Fiji, to whom Fowler was indebted for ‘interesting’ fishes from that island country. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Korte beschrijving
Determinatiesleutels | Morfologie | Morfometrie
Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 0; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 12 - 14; Anale stekels: 0; Anale zachte stralen: 16 - 19. Anal organs 13-14; the elevated, anteriorly displaced second ventral organ (anterior of the vertical from first ventral organ) and the low anal organ and gill raker counts easily separate this species from all other congeners (Ref. 39633).
High-oceanic and mesopelagic; occurs in the upper 212 m at night.
