Short description
Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics
Dorsal soft rays (total): 57 - 61; Anal soft rays: 49 - 54; Vertebrae: 63 - 68. This species is distinguished from its congeners by the following characters: anal-fin rays 2 and pterygiophores 2 instead of one behind the haemal spine of vertebra 13, 14, 15, or 16; absence of pectoral-fin notch and lower lobe; differs most clearly from N. kurchatovia and N. macquariensis in having more vertebrae 63-68 (vs. 50-58), dorsal-fin rays 57-61 (vs. 41-53) and anal-fin rays 49-54 (vs. 38-46), and generally more pectoral-fin rays 31-36 (vs. 31); with a shorter head 17-21% SL (vs. 24-25% SL), smaller eyes 1.5-1.8% SL (vs. 2.3-2.6% SL), shorter disk 5.4–7.1% SL vs. (8.8-9.9% SL), and other proportional differences; differs from N. stewarti and N. antonbruuni in other characters as above (Ref. 129455).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: compressed.
Reported to be abundant in its known depth range (6456 to 7554 m) (Ref. 129455).

Resilience (Ref.
120179): Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
