Short description
Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics
Anal spines: 1; Anal soft rays: 6 - 8. Body with reticulate dark brown pattern, diffuse cross-hatched barring along midside of body, more distinct posteriorly; pair of brown spots at caudal fin base. Longitudinal scales 28-30. TRB 9-11. Predorsal scales 9-11; reaching to behind eyes, anteriormost scale enlarged. Scales on body ctenoid, extending forward to at least over top of opercle and often onto predorsal area, opercle usually with ctenoid scales. Dorsal fin low, filamentous spines absent (Ref. 43716)
Facultative air-breathing in the genus (Ref. 126274)

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00977 (0.00442 - 0.02163), b=3.05 (2.86 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.4 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
