Disc is narrowly projecting to snout, pelvic fins with long anterior margins. Narrowly pointed falcate outer corners. Upper surface dark brown, lower surface pale with darker margins and teeth as yellowish white (Ref. 6902).
Found in shallow waters on sandy bottoms generally between 5 and 25 m depth. Reported from a depth of 810 m (Ref. 13608). Ovoviviparous (Ref. 50449).
Life cycle and mating behavior
Geschlechtsreife | Fortpflanzung | Ablaichen | Eier | Fecundity | Larven
Exhibit ovoviparity (aplacental viviparity), with embryos feeding initially on yolk, then receiving additional nourishment from the mother by indirect absorption of uterine fluid enriched with mucus, fat or protein through specialised structures (Ref. 50449). Distinct pairing with embrace (Ref. 205).
