Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 3; Raggi anali molli: 3. Metamorphosed females distinguished by the following characteristics: escal bulb without distal prolongation; single distal filament and series of about 10 branched filaments on each side; absence of anterior escal appendage; total length of barbel 25-33% SL, distal part with series of 5 photophores, proximal photophores set on short stalks; dense concentration of subdermal melanophores on caudal peduncle (Ref. 86949).

Also mesopelagic (Ref. 10762).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Fonte Biblio. 123201): 3.1 - 4.3, mean 3.9 °C (based on 106 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Fonte Biblio. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Fonte Biblio. 69278): 3.7 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

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