Short description Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría

Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 5; Radios blandos anales: 4. Distinguishing characteristics of metamorphosed female: length of illicium 30-44% SL; each primary branch of distal escal appendage unbranched, single side branch emerging from posterior margin at varying distances from base; total length of escal appendage 18% SL in 3.2 cm specimens, 59-214% SL in 5.9-9.2 cm specimens; length of distal escal appendage 5% SL in 3.2 cm specimens, 15-34% SL in 5.9-9.2 cm specimens; side branches cylindrical or slightly tapering toward blunt tip; distal appendage covered with dermal spinules, except for tips (Ref. 86949).

Minimum depth from Ref. 58018.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Referencia 123201): 2 - 2.5, mean 2.3 °C (based on 800 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Referencia 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).

Nivel trófico (Referencia 69278): 4.5 ±0.37 se; based on food items.

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