Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 3; Raggi anali molli: 3. Metamorphosed females distinguished by the following characteristics: escal bulb with cylindrical distal prolongation, divided distally into 6 simple tapering filaments; tiny posterior appendage, papilliform; absence of additional escal appendages; simple barbel, undivided, bearing a distal tassel of appendages consisting of simple, cylindrical, distally unpigmented and slightly expanded prolongation of primary stem of barbel, surrounded at base by 3 shorter, unpigmented, compressed pointed branches, each bearing a series of sessile photophores along outer margin (Ref. 86949).

Only 1 female known. Males unknown (Ref. 13578).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 7.4 - 9.9, mean 8.3 °C (based on 4 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01995 (0.00906 - 0.04395), b=3.01 (2.83 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.7 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

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