Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 20 - 23; Raggi anali molli: 32 - 34; Vertebre: 40 - 41. Presence of a black distal margin well defined on the caudal fin. Dorsal with 20 to 23 branched rays. Anal with 32 to 34 rays. 23 to 29 prepelvic serrae, 5 to 6 supraneurals in front of the dorsal and 39 to 41 + CP1 vertebrae of which 15 to 16 + CP1 behind the last pterygiophore of the dorsal. Elongated body shape (55 to 70% of LS) and the eye diameter is reduced (6.3 to 12.9% of LS). The dorsal base is short (28.8 to 33% of LS). The adipose fin is rectangular and its base is long (4.3 to 6.2% of LS).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5001 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02570 (0.01204 - 0.05486), b=2.97 (2.80 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (48 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.
