Comments: Found on muddy bottoms (Ref. 4695).  Benthic (Ref. 58426).  Feeds mostly on endobenthic prey such as small bivalves, polychaetes and small crustaceans in addition to detritus.  It seems to get the bulk of its food by burrowing in the sediment (Ref. 13532).  Ripe females recorded in September in the Kara Sea (Ref. 4695).  Minimum depth from Ref. 58018.
