Short description Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría

Vértebra: 158 - 161. Diagnostic features: Body with discrete, round to oval, orange spots, smaller and many anteriorly, larger and in a single row above and below the lateral line farther back; a distinct, oblique, white patch free of spots about 1/3 of the way along the trunk; pre-anal pores and vertebrae, 52-56; head length 15-18% of snout to anus length;

Burrows tail-first into the sand; feed on zooplankton, in regions of current (Ref. 33408).

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=0.00102 (0.00046 - 0.00225), b=3.06 (2.88 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 3.4 ±0.45 se; based on food items.

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Alto, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo inferior a 15 meses (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (23 of 100).
