Classification / Names Nomi Comuni | Sinonimi | Catalog of Fishes(Genere, Specie) | ITIS | CoL | WoRMS | Cloffa

> Myctophiformes (Lanternfishes) > Myctophidae (Lanternfishes) > Gymnoscopelinae
Etymology: Notoscopelus: Greek, noton = back + Greek, skopelos = a lantern fish (Ref. 45335).

Issue
The position of the species as a synonym of Notoscopelus elongatus (Costa, 1844) is apprently a mistake. Fixation of the issue in progress.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 3.1 - 10.2, mean 6.8 °C (based on 43 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5156   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00437 (0.00199 - 0.00957), b=3.16 (2.96 - 3.36), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.2   ±0.1 se; based on diet studies.
Generation time: 5.5 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (K=0.2).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 79.4 [26.7, 192.0] mg/100g; Iron = 0.544 [0.238, 1.356] mg/100g; Protein = 16.5 [14.5, 18.5] %; Omega3 = 1.12 [0.49, 2.80] g/100g; Selenium = 13.7 [5.2, 38.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 56.5 [12.0, 300.8] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.841 [0.494, 1.428] mg/100g (wet weight);
