Depth range and maximum size based from original description; to be replaced with a better reference. Found on sand, coral sand, mud, and seagrass beds, in depths of 0 to 200 meters. However, this maximum reported depth is based on fishermen's data and can be an overestimation since most specimens have been collected from shallow water (Ref. 132936). |
