Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 9; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 24 - 27; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 21 - 23.

Adults prefer clear oceanic waters around islands to neritic waters (Ref. 5217). Occasionally in turbid waters (Ref. 9283). Pelagic (Ref. 58302). Individuals travel in compact groups of hundreds of thousands of fish. Mainly nocturnal in habit, they disperse at night to feed on small shrimps, benthic invertebrates, and forams when inshore, and zooplankton and fish larvae when offshore (Ref. 9283, 90102). Marketed fresh and salted or dried (Ref. 9283). Reported to reach 70 cm TL (Ref. 48635).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 20 - 29.2, mean 27.9 °C (based on 6848 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01349 (0.01201 - 0.01516), b=2.98 (2.95 - 3.01), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.8 ±0.2 se; based on diet studies.

Generation time: 1.0 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (K=0.6-0.9).

Prior r = 1.19, 95% CL = 0.79 - 1.79, Based on 8 data-limited stock assessments.

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (25 of 100).

Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649): High vulnerability (60 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Very high.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 44.7 [14.5, 96.7] mg/100g; Iron = 0.976 [0.355, 2.254] mg/100g; Protein = 21.2 [19.1, 23.1] %; Omega3 = 0.331 [0.165, 0.686] g/100g; Selenium = 51.7 [18.8, 141.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 15.1 [3.9, 70.2] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.678 [0.337, 1.145] mg/100g (wet weight); based on nutrient studies.
