Diretmidae (Spinyfins)
Etymology: Diretmoides: Greek, di = two + Greek, eretmos = oar + Greek, suffix, oides = similar to (Ref. 45335).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
marinhas batipelágico; intervalo de profundidade 0 - 950 m (Ref. 9927). Deep-water
Eastern Atlantic: Guinea Bissau to Angola (Ref. 6536). Western Atlantic: eastern Florida, Gulf of Mexico, the Caribbean and northern Brazil. Indian Ocean: Mozambique, Madagascar, and Western Australia. Pacific: Indonesia, South China Sea, and Kyushu-Palau Ridge (Moore, pers. comm.).
Tamanho / Peso / Idade
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 37.0 cm SL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 6744)
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 0; Raios dorsais (total) : 24 - 26; Espinhos anais: 0; Raios anais : 18 - 21. Tip of pelvic fin not reaching origin of anal fin (Ref. 13608).
Mesopelagic. Young near the surface while aged adults often descend below 1,000 m depth (Ref. 2683). Largest adults may be benthopelagic (Ref. 9851). Plankton-eaters like the other members of the family (Ref. 6744). Breed all year round (Ref. 6744). Minimum depth range taken from Ref. 27000.
