FBname: Taillight shark
Comments: Probably oceanic but also near the upper slope (Ref. 5578).  The holotype was caught in a bottom trawl between 457 and 640 m, a second specimen was collected in the open ocean near the surface at less than 25 m (Ref. 247, 5578).  Food unknown but the powerful jaws and sharp teeth suggest that this species can take relatively large prey (Ref. 247).  Probably ovoviviparous with few young (Ref. 247).
