Comments: Adults live mainly in shallow muddy and sandy bottoms of the continental shelf, sometimes entering estuaries and tidal rivers (Ref. 1479, 48637).  Usually deeply buried in the substrate during the day, but out and hunting at night (Ref. 48637).  They feed mainly on benthic invertebrates.  Marketed mostly fresh and frozen; also dried-salted (Ref. 9895).
