Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 9; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 10; Espinas anales: 3; Radios blandos anales: 7. Second dorsal fin elongated, reaching just short of last dorsal fin ray when depressed (in all stages, up to 50% SL, mean 42% SL, tip very easily broken). Orbit diameter relatively small (8-11% SL), ratio as % of snout length, 93-143. Head length relatively short, 30-33% of SL. Maxillary reaching to below or (rarely) just short of anterior margin of iris. Exposed maxillary process always tapering to a point anteriorly for about half its length. Supraneural bones 3 (Ref. 43141).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01413 (0.00602 - 0.03315), b=3.04 (2.86 - 3.22), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Nivel trófico (Ref.
69278): 3.3 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resiliencia (Ref.
120179): Alto, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo inferior a 15 meses (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
