Comments: Found on muddy bottoms (Ref. 4695).  Benthic (Ref. 58426).  Feeds mainly on epibenthic animals.  With increase in size, shrimps and euphausiids are ingested in greater quantities but unlike <i>L. reticulatus</i>, its ingestion of smaller prey items does not decrease.  Changes in feeding habit with size are relatively small (Ref. 13532).
