Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Vertebre: 32 - 34. AC photophores23-26, usually 24. Head 29-33% SL, eye 9.5-11% SL, upper jaw 15.5-19% SL, maximum body depth at pectoral fin base 21-24% SL. Stomach lightly pigmented, hind portion of intestine not pigmented (Ref. 26775).

Benthopelagic (Ref. 58302). Adults form dense aggregations at daytime in upper mesopelagic waters and disperses at night on the surface (Ref. 102274).

Estimates based on models

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00479 (0.00196 - 0.01170), b=3.16 (2.95 - 3.37), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.3 ±0.2 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (tmax=2; Assuming Fec < 1,000).

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