Short description Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría

Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 82 - 94; Radios blandos anales: 68 - 80. This species is distinguished by the following characters: D 82-94; much reduced squamation on preopercle and opercle and occiput almost naked; scale rows on trunk above beginning of anal fin 18-20; black eye comparatively small (10-13.5% HL), none or minute lens <10%; otolith roundish, massive, OL:OH = 1.2-1.55, the inner face flat while outer one strongly convex (Ref. 126178).

Rare species (Ref. 34024). Reproductive strategy possibly similar to other members of this family featuring oviparity, with oval pelagic eggs floating in a gelatinous mass (Ref. 205).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 0.7 - 2.3, mean 2.1 (based on 1504 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.7500 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00110 (0.00041 - 0.00296), b=3.08 (2.85 - 3.31), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 3.5 ±0.6 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 (19 of 100).
