Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Vertebre: 107. Lacks pelvic and caudal fins; pectoral fin not externally visible and made of two small bones; compared to Encheliophis vermicularis, this species has fewer, larger teeth on the dentary (14 versus more than 20) and has 7 branchiostegal rays (versus 6) (Ref. 51068).

The holotype was found in the coelomic cavity of the holothuroid Actinopyga mauritania caught at a depth of 1 m in a lagoon (Ref. 51068).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5078 [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).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

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