समुद्री बैथीपिलाजिक; गहराई सीमा 300 - 1750 m (Ref. 40877), usually 300 - 1500 m (Ref. 6613). Deep-water
Western Atlantic: Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea to coastal waters off Suriname. Eastern Atlantic: off Portugal to coastal waters of Namibia, as far south as about 24°S. The single specimen recorded from the Okinawa Trough, East China Sea (Ref. 51075) is a misidentification of Bufoceratias thele.
आकार / वज़न / आयु
परिपक्व अवधि: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 25.0 cm TL (female)
पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 2; पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 5 - 6; गुदा कांटा: 0; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 4. Metamorphosed females of Bufoceratias wedli differ from those of Bufoceratias shaoi in having a much smaller esca and a longer illicium (83-225% standard length versus 26-40% standard length), and from those of Bufoceratias thele in having distinct, anterior, posterior, and lateral escal appendages (Ref. 51070).
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep.
Mesopelagic and bathypelagic near or on continental shelf (Ref. 6939). Males and larvae unknown (Ref. 51070), probably dwarfed, non-parasitic (Ref. 6939). Minimum depth from Ref. 6613.
