Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 8; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 16; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 14; Vertebre: 23. The males of this species are distinguished from all its congeners by possessing an expansive cornucopia-shaped translucent lateral flank patch, while both sexes can be further distinguished from P. elongatus and P. rivulatus, by the more or less bullet-shaped flank patch; a deeper body 34.4-39.2 (vs. 12.5-29.7% of SL); and, vermiculate pigmentation pattern on the upper flank with thin wavy lines forming semi-circles and oval shapes (vs. larger rounded blotches). Both sexes of this species differ from P. leuciscus and P. klunzingeri, by the triangular flank patch; absence of a markedly elongate second dorsal-fin spine; and the vermiculate pigmentation pattern on the upper flank, with thin wavy lines forming semi-circles and oval shapes (vs. speckled). Adults of both sexes of also grow to a larger size than congeners, except P. leuciscus (Ref. 59114).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 27.2 - 28.9, mean 28.5 °C (based on 42 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5010 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01862 (0.00823 - 0.04215), b=2.97 (2.78 - 3.16), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.4 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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