Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 0; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 13 - 16; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 14 - 17; Vertebre: 45 - 48. Lower jaw proportionately much shorter at larger sizes. Anal rays usually 15; vertebrae 45-48, usually 46 or 47; gill rakers on the first arch, 21-25, usually 23 or 24.

A coastal species that extends into fresh water. Occurs in brackish estuaries, but frequently found in the lower, tidal portions of freshwater streams (Ref. 2847). Considered an excellent food fish taken by commercial and recreational fishers (Ref. 9843).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 26.7 - 28.8, mean 27.9 °C (based on 316 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.7500 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00324 (0.00148 - 0.00710), b=3.08 (2.90 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.2 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (34 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.
