Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 6 - 7; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 29 - 36; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 17 - 22; Vertebre: 24. Scutes absent. Compared to S. lalandi, the species' dorsoposterior corner of upper jaw is angular (versus rounded) and the pectoral and pelvic fins are almost equal in length (versus pectoral shorter than pelvic fin).

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Adults exhibit shoaling habit (Ref. 9988). They feed on plankton. Juveniles are found among floating seaweeds (Ref. 12114, 12115). Collection of young is the basis for prosperous aquaculture in Japan. Raised in captivity and marketed fresh for sashimi (Ref. 9988).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5020   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01413 (0.00618 - 0.03226), b=2.94 (2.74 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  4.0   ±0.65 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 3.4 ( 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=0.3-0.5).
Prior r = 0.57, 95% CL = 0.38 - 0.85, Based on 1 data-limited stock assessment.
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Moderate to high vulnerability (52 of 100).
Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649):  Very high vulnerability (100 of 100).
Price category (Ref. 80766):   Very high.
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 52.4 [32.1, 127.7] mg/100g; Iron = 1.36 [0.76, 2.65] mg/100g; Protein = 18.9 [16.0, 21.8] %; Omega3 = 0.334 [0.213, 0.557] g/100g; Selenium = 37.3 [19.1, 79.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 17.4 [2.2, 126.7] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.428 [0.301, 0.639] mg/100g (wet weight);
