Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Body elongate, not very deep, and little compressed, its depth contained 3.2 to 3.8 times in standard length; caudal peduncle very thick; preopercular angle with a broad "spur" consisting of 6 to 12 large spines; first gill arch with 21 to 27 gill rakers; anal rays 8; body grayish brown; flanks with indistinct dark, double, vertical bars; snout and cheeks with yellow stripes; soft dorsal fin with a dark band along its base (Ref. 55763).

Inhabits sand or muddy-sand bottoms. Probably too small in size to be of commercial importance.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 15.3 - 22.8, mean 17.1 °C (based on 22 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5002 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00955 (0.00587 - 0.01555), b=3.07 (2.93 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.6 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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