is a widespread species, adults appear to be rare, with only about 10 specimens known in collections. The specimen from Mozambique has the most lateral-line scales (85, including 63 large + 22 small), whereas others have 73-80 (64-67 + 8-16). The number of large scales is fairly constant among specimens, but because most individuals were collected by bottom trawl and either suffered some degree of skin damage or had their body partly broken, it is possible that small scales at the posterior end of the lateral line are missing in some.

noticed that the vertebral counts are different among specimens from the western Atlantic Ocean (81-83) and New Caledonia (86), which he concluded was due to lack of data, not to the existence of different geographic populations. Our only western Atlantic specimen also has 81 vertebrae, whereas three Pacific specimens have 86 or 87 vertebrae. Examination of more specimens may prove that there are consistent differences among populations.
