Cardinal

Average length 40-70 cm. Dark brown, with large, loose scales. Widely distributed around New Zealand, apparently most common off the east coast of the North Island, in 300-800 m. sometimes trawled on shallow parts of some orange roughy grounds, or while fishing for alfonsino near pinnacles. Probably only a small resource.
