Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal soft rays (total): 18 - 19; Anal soft rays: 8. Distinguished from its congener occurring in Indochinese area by 14-15 1/2 branched dorsal rays and a complete lateral line; suborbital flap present in males. Distinguished from A. zonalternans by a greater standard length (up to 8 cm, versus 4.5), a shorter predorsal length (43.2-46.0% SL, versus 43.5-53.4) and a smaller eye (4.1-5.7% SL, versus 5.9-8.7; 19-26% HL, versus 26-35).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5156 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00708 (0.00336 - 0.01491), b=3.01 (2.84 - 3.18), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 2.8 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilience (Ref. 120179): Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Assuming Fec < 1,000).

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