Kurzbeschreibung Bestimmungsschlüssel | Morphologie | Morphometrie

Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 0; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 14 - 17; Afterflossenstacheln: 0; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 15 - 18; Wirbelzahl: 28. Diagnosis: It is distinguished from all congeners by the following unique combination of characters: males with entire flank covered in more than 50 reddish spots of which some are fused forming irregular laterally-elongated blotches, a few irregularly scattered dots on proximal portion of anal fin, pelvic fin reaching anal fin, dorsal fin tip reaching caudal fin, females with spots on flank but not on fins; dorsal fin with 14-17 rays, anal fin with 15-18 rays and 29-31 scales in median lateral series (Ref. 95020).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5625 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
