Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecology
Benthic; depth range 100 - 1463 m (Ref. 409), usually 300 - 600 m (Ref. 409). Tropical, preferred 26°C (Ref. 107945); 33°N - 44°S, 103°E - 176°W
Indo-West Pacific: Madagascar to Japan and New Zealand (Ref. 8). Pérez Farfante recognizes 3 subspecies: Haliporoides sibogae australiensis from Australia; Haliporoides sibogae madagascariensis from Madagascar and Reunion; and Haliporoides sibogae sibogae from Malaysia to Japan and New Zealand (Ref. 75620).
Length at first maturity / Size / Weight / Age
Maturity: Lm ?, range 10 - ? cm Max length : 16.5 cm BL male/unsexed; (Ref. 8); 20 cm BL (female)
Both midwater and demersal species (Ref. 106892). Deep water species (Refs. 82143, 106892). On rocks and rubbles (Ref .99823). Reported to undertake diel vertical migrations; may also bury in the continental slope at night. Feeds almost exclusively on bottom-living prey; actively hunting both night and day (Ref. 106892).

Members of the order Decapoda are mostly gonochoric. Mating behavior: Precopulatory courtship ritual is common (through olfactory and tactile cues); usually indirect sperm transfer.
