Spine dorsali (totale) : 10 - 13; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 14 - 16; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 13 - 15. Silvery with purple tinge. Fins grayish.

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Occurs in small schools in areas with muddy substrates on the continental shelf and upper slope. Feeds mainly on zooplankton. Appears to be pelagic at night and demersal by day and may migrate seasonally. Marketed fresh or dried-salted (Ref. 3300).

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