Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal soft rays (total): 19 - 21; Anal soft rays: 13 - 15; Vertebrae: 33 - 35. This species is distinguished by the following: body slender, elongated and not pigmented in preserved specimen; tail distinctly shorter than the abdomen; body depth at pectoral radial plate origin 4.1% of SL and at anal-fin origin 5.6% of SL; origin of dorsal fin distinctly anterior to origin of anal fin (long dorsal fin type), predorsal length 57.6 % of SL and preanal length 74.3 % of SL; tail length (without caudal fin) 29.8 % of SL; D 19-21; A 13-15; first anal-fin ray positioned below 9th-10th dorsal fn ray; premaxilla with about 40 closely spaced tiny teeth along entire ventral margin; teeth on dentary about 30 separated by a distinct gap (diastema) into two groups; myomeres 34-36; male urogenital papilla elongate, tube like, tapering towards tip; female urogenital papilla tiny and inconspicuous (Ref. 123103).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = No PD50 data   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.0   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
