Short Description
Original diagnosis after DIDIER, LAST & WHITE, 2008 [3357]: Chimaera fulva is distinguished from its congeners by the following combination of characters: thin, deciduous skin; silvery pink to pale brownish in colour; preopercular and oral lateral line canals sharing a common branch; dorsal spine short, subequal or slightly shorter than first dorsal fin; claspers of adult males long (17–19% BDL), trifurcate, divided for slightly less than half of their length; structure of the CO1 gene.
