Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

The lateral line pores are in a double row and the dorsal-fin origin is back from vertical above pectoral-fin base. The median fins have dusky margins and the caudal fin ends in a black tip. The head has dark banding, especially over the top between the eyes (Ref. 48635).

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

A benthic species (Ref. 75154) found on the continental shelf (Ref. 48635, 75154). Generally known from trawl over muddy substrates (Ref. 48635). Minimum depth from Ref. 58018.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 20.7 - 27.9, mean 26.1 (based on 258 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 1.0000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00062 (0.00028 - 0.00136), b=3.19 (3.00 - 3.38), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.7   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (20 of 100).
