Remarks

epipelagic- mesopelagic. Sampling depth (Sub-Antarctic): 0-50 m. Sargasso Sea: 0-500 m (Deevey & Brooks, 1977, Station "S").For Bainbridge (1972, p.91) the species is epipelagic (day and night) on the African coasts of Gulf of Guinea.
Registered off the Brazilian coast for the first time by Björnberg (1963).
After Benedetti & al. (2018, p.1, Fig.2) this species belonging to the functional group 4 corresponding to small filter feeding herbivorous and mixed feeding omnivorous (mostly broadcasters).
