Kurzbeschreibung Bestimmungsschlüssel | Morphologie | Morphometrie

This species is distinguished by the following set of characters: body covered with blunt, smooth bucklers and numerous prickles; rostrum moderately long (mean 7.7% SL) and stout, with a broad base, directed forward horizontally; top of head with three irregular rows of bucklers; ventral surface of disk densely covered by prickles and scattered small bucklers, some slightly larger bucklers on breast; blunt subopercular buckler, without enlarged spines; small orbit (mean 12.4% SL); broad interorbital space (mean 8.5% SL), forming a deep groove; OD/RL = 1.3-2.2; OD/IO = 1.3-1.7; when fully depressed, the anal fin reaches or nearly to the caudal-fin base (Ref. 94126).

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=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref. 120179): hoch, Verdopplung der Population dauert weniger als 15 Monate. (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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