Etymology: Melamphaes: Greek, melan, -anos = black + Greek, amphi = both side (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: The succession of Danish research vessels named ‘Dana’ seem to have been greatly favoured by describers of fish, and often the etymology includes: “…from which the holotype was collected. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range Ekologi
marina batypelagisk; djupintervall 75 - 1275 m (Ref. 58302), usually 125 - 150 m (Ref. 51657). Deep-water; 30°N - 30°S, 48°E - 112°W (Ref. 117122)

Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 3; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 14 - 16; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 1; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 8 - 9; Ryggkotor: 26 - 27. This species is distinguished by the following characters: gill rakers on first gill arch 15-18; width of suborbital bone is substantially larger than eye diameter; vertebrae 26-27, including 11 (rarely 12) abdominal vertebrae; spurs on haemal arch of first caudal vertebra; D III,14-16; A I,8-9, soft rays in pelvic fin 7; pelvic fin origin under vertical (or behind of the vertical) through posterior edge of pectoral fin base; anal fin origin under second to fifth rays of dorsal fin (from end of fin); no black dotted pigmented spots on head, body, and fins (Ref. 117122).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.

Trawled at depths greater than 125 meters (Ref. 4241).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 15.2 - 23.7, mean 20.9 °C (based on 46 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01072 (0.00442 - 0.02595), b=3.10 (2.89 - 3.31), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.38 se; based on food items.
Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Hög, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid mindre än 15 månader (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
