Comments: From reports, whereas 8,000 tons of this species were landed in 1986 (in Carneiro and Castro, 2005, as M. ancylodon), the catch decreased to 4,000 tons in 2002 (a decline in commercial stocks of at least 50% over this 16-year period). In southern Brazil, demersal resource stocks evaluation obtained from 1975 to 1994 show a decreasing total biomass since the beginning of exploitation and that the resource is heavily exploited in that region (Haimovici, 1998, as M. ancylodon) (Ref. 88197).

Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 11; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 27 - 29; Anale stekels: 2; Anale zachte stralen: 8 - 10. Macrodon atricauda differs from M. ancylodon by the following characteristics: pored lateral line scales 49-63 (vs. 66-78); anal fin soft rays 9-10, rarely 8 (vs. usually 8, occasionally 9); dorsal fin soft rays 27-28, rarely 29 (vs. 28-29, rarely 27); pectoral fin rays 16-17 (vs. 15-16); largest front canines 2.5 to 3.2 in eye length, proportionally smaller and thinner when compared to M. ancylodon (Ref. 88197).

This species is heavily exploited throughout its range (Ref. 88197).

Estimates based on models

Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.6250 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00617 (0.00404 - 0.00942), b=3.09 (2.96 - 3.22), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Trofisch niveau (Ref. 69278): 4.0 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Weerstandsvermogen (Ref. 120179): Hoog, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd minder dan 15 maanden (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (36 of 100).
