Grey to greyish brown in color, darker on fin edges and along lateral line (Ref. 3973). Body with scales in grouped, right-angle basketweave pattern. Thick head, blunt, cylindrical. Small mouth, gape falling well short of the orbit; strongly plicate lips around the slit-like mouth; hyomandibula canted anteriorly. Broadly separate gill slits. Reduced cephalic lateralis system (Ref. 26895).
Body shape (shape guide): eel-like.
Found on the continental slope and upper abyssal depths. Feed on invertebrates (epibenthic copepods and amphipods) and fishes (Ref. 6726). Reported to be parasitic on fishes. Eggs are probably pelagic (Ref. 6726).
