Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 5 - 6; Raggi anali molli: 4 - 5. Distinguishing characteristics of metamorphosed female: esca unusually large and laterally compressed esca, greatest width more than 1.5 times its length; terminal escal papilla, rounded; well developed posterior and anterior escal appendages, usually bearing 1 or more tiny, slender terminal filaments; upper jaw with 67-111teeth, lower jaw 51-68 teeth; vomerine teeth 6-10 (Ref. 86949).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.6406 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.9 ±0.7 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
