marino demersal; rango de profundidad 100 - 500 m (Ref. 104534), usually 104 - 159 m (Ref. 104534). Temperate; 35°S - 55°S, 67°W - 52°W (Ref. 104534)

Tamaño / Peso / Age
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 111 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 104534)
Oviparous (Ref. 50449). Eggs have horn-like projections on the shell (Ref. 205). Reportedly taken as bycatch in deeper water benthic trawl and longline teleost target fisheries as well as in target longline skate fishing from off Mar del Plata, Argentina (Ref. 104534).
Life cycle and mating behavior

Oviparous, paired eggs are laid. Embryos feed solely on yolk (Ref. 50449). Eggs have horn-like projections on the shell (Ref. 205).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 3.9 - 6, mean 4.6 °C (based on 27 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00513 (0.00253 - 0.01042), b=3.12 (2.95 - 3.29), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Nivel trófico (Ref.
69278): 4.0 ±0.7 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resiliencia (Ref.
