Short description पहचान कुंजी | आकृति विज्ञान | मौरफोमैटरिक्स

पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 6; पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 9; गुदा कांटा: 2; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 9. Diagnosis: 122-140 (generally 125-132) scales in lateral line (Ref. 57401). Sides marked with about 20 dark, largely backwards open chevrons (Ref. 57401), which become less distinct in large specimens (Ref. 5491).

Commonly enters lagoons and estuaries (Ref. 4339, 57401). Found on the continental shelf (Ref. 36731). Feeds on fish and shrimps (Ref. 28587). Never reported to be ciguatoxic. Good food and recreational value.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 22.6 - 28, mean 26.3 °C (based on 84 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00724 (0.00435 - 0.01206), b=2.89 (2.75 - 3.03), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.1 ±0.70 se; based on food items.

लौटाव (Ref. 120179): बहुत नीचे, न्यूनतम जनसंख्या दुगनी समय अवलागत 14 महीने। (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Very high vulnerability (90 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Medium.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 25.1 [11.3, 65.4] mg/100g; Iron = 0.451 [0.213, 0.973] mg/100g; Protein = 20.1 [18.1, 21.8] %; Omega3 = 0.134 [0.058, 0.318] g/100g; Selenium = 55.4 [22.0, 149.4] μg/100g; VitaminA = 5.33 [1.07, 29.15] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.567 [0.349, 0.982] mg/100g (wet weight);
