Length at first maturity / Tamanho / Peso / Idade
Maturity: Lm 21.3  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 55.0 cm TL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 121850)
Adults and juveniles feed mainly on zooplankton, with relative importance of larger organisms such as cephalopods, crustaceans and small pelagic fish increases with the size of individuals. Caught mostly in purse seine and pelagic trawl fisheries which target sardine and/or anchovy. Usually a by-catch but when availability of target species is low, this species provided an alternative income (Ref. 121850)
