High-oceanic, found between 490-690 m during the day and from 100-200 m at night. Specimens larger than 30 mm are non-migratory (Ref. 4479). Mesopelagic (Ref. 58302). Sexual maturity at a length of 7,5 cm (Ref. 47377). In the Atlantic, gravid females were taken in February and April, suggesting a late summer spawning period (Ref. 96467).
