Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 12; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 10; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 12.

Caught in both shallow and deep waters. Its strong dentition makes it an opportunistic predator, even of hard-shelled benthos as shown by its stomach contents of coarse calcareous remains and detritus (Ref. 11295).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturities | Riproduzione | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | Larve

Oviparous, with distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 16.2 - 23.1, mean 19 °C (based on 22 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.6250 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00871 (0.00507 - 0.01497), b=3.04 (2.89 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.2 ±0.2 se; based on diet studies.

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 4.5 - 14 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (48 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Very high.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 27.3 [16.3, 45.1] mg/100g; Iron = 0.461 [0.268, 0.812] mg/100g; Protein = 18.9 [15.9, 21.1] %; Omega3 = 0.144 [0.096, 0.215] g/100g; Selenium = 40.3 [24.1, 70.3] μg/100g; VitaminA = 86.5 [26.8, 313.3] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.98 [0.70, 1.50] mg/100g (wet weight);
