Short description Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri

Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 0; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 10 - 12; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 0; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 17 - 19; Ryggkotor: 53 - 56. Blackish on head and back; paler below (Ref. 6602). No distinct black spot surrounding anus (Ref. 13608).

Larvae are epipelagic, young inhabit the layers between 50-200 m, adults benthopelagic and found deeper than 500 m over continental and insular slopes (Ref. 6552, 6602). Mesopelagic (Ref. 58302). Feeds mainly on zooplankton. Extensive migrations by juveniles and adults, probably for feeding in the subtropical belts. Spawning occurs in tropical waters, especially in the western part of the Atlantic Ocean (Ref. 6689).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 9.6 - 20.6, mean 14.5 °C (based on 680 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00288 (0.00120 - 0.00692), b=3.18 (2.96 - 3.40), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 3.4 ±0.45 se; based on food items.

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (15 of 100).
