Aldrovandia affinis is a genus of ray-finned fish in the family Halosauridae, with an overhanging, pointed snout. They occur on the middle and lower slope primarily above the 4°C isotherm. Hovers within a few meters of substrate, parallel to it or inclined at varying angles (Ref. 6727). Feeds on polychaetes, pelecypods, amphipods and other benthic prey. They feed on polychaetes, amphipods and other small benthic invertebrates.
