Typhlonus nasus |
微眼新鼬䲁 ( 學名Typhlonus nasus ,英文名 facekess cusk,) 屬於鼬魚科,發現於印度洋和太平洋3,935至5,100米(12,910至16,732英尺)深處 。 體長可至46.5 cm(18.3英寸)。 [1]
其英文名字反映了本物種極小的臉部。其口部位於頭部的下方,外觀上在頭部兩側並無可見之眼睛,其眼睛乃藏於皮膚深處,在小型標本中可見。 [3]它還擁有兩對朝前的大鼻孔,位於口部上方。 [4]微眼新鼬䲁頭部兩側有明顯的鰓蓋和大而容易脫落的鱗片。 [4]無尾鰭,而背鰭和臀鰭甚小,顏色較深,末端融合而替代尾鰭。相較於深色的魚鰭,身體相當蒼白。
