Short description Morfología | Morfometría

This species is distinguished by the following characters: a greyish anterior part of the sole, abruptly changing just in front of the pelvic fins, to a dense pigmented posterior part; two adult specimens show in addition, a relatively weak irregular large blotch just in front of the change in pigmentation, centered approximately below the anterior part of the dorsal fin in the vertical plane; scale pockets possibly relatively light (Ref. 111070).

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02188 (0.00844 - 0.05670), b=2.98 (2.75 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278):  3.4   ±0.1 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
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).
