Primarily benthic (Ref. 114953). Occurs mainly in the marine environment, but also enters the lower reaches of rivers. Ovoviviparous (Ref. 50449). Males mature by 68 cm TL; born at ca. 20 cm TL. Females produces litters up to 6 pups (Ref. 114953). Minimum depth range from Ref. 121775.
Cycle de vie et comportement reproducteur
Maturité | Reproduction | Frai | Œufs | Fécondité | Larves
Exhibit ovoviparity (aplacental viviparity), with embryos feeding initially on yolk, then receiving additional nourishment from the mother by indirect absorption of uterine fluid enriched with mucus, fat or protein through specialised structures (Ref. 50449).
