Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 19 - 22; Raggi anali molli: 10 - 11; Vertebre: 52 - 53. This species is distinguished by the following: D 19-22; A 10-11; gill-rakers 13-15 + 33-36 (total 47-51); vertebrae 52-53; origin of pelvic fins about one-third eye diameter posterior to a vertical at rear end of dorsal fin base; colour when preserved in alcohol has the centre of scales on dorsal half of body blackish, the edges pale grey (pale edges progressively narrower posteriorly), ventral half of body abruptly silvery white; colour when fresh is iridescent blue-green dorsally on body, dark pigmentation as in alcohol preserved specimens, shading through bronze to silvery white on abdomen (Ref. 91762).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5098 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00537 (0.00246 - 0.01172), b=3.13 (2.92 - 3.34), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.5 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Generation time: 3.9 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2
growth studies.
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (15 of 100).
