Short description Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría

Espinas dorsales (total) : 0; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 65 - 77; Espinas anales: 0; Radios blandos anales: 41 - 50. Ground color yellowish or yellowish brown; dorsal, anal and caudal fins paler than body with dark spots. Blind side whitish. Some anterior dorsal fin rays elongated in males, not in females, all rays except a few at posterior end of fin unbranched. Pectoral fin on eyed side with 11-13 rays, on blind side with 10-13 rays. Caudal fin with 13-14 branched rays and rounded margin.

Inhabits sand and mud bottoms (Ref. 9797). Frequently collected in areas near river mouths (Ref. 9797). Feeds on bottom-living animals (Ref. 9797). Mostly used in making fish meal but is also marketed fresh (Ref. 9797).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 23.7 - 28.6, mean 27.5 °C (based on 661 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 1.0156 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01122 (0.00514 - 0.02450), b=3.04 (2.87 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 3.5 ±0.37 se; based on food items.

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Alto, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo inferior a 15 meses (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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

Price category (Ref. 80766): Very high.
