Korte beschrijving Determinatiesleutels | Morfologie | Morfometrie

Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 92 - 99; Anale zachte stralen: 71 - 76. Gray to brown with numerous circles, curved spots, and dots of light blue on head and body; fins with small light blue spots; two or three large diffuse blackish spots on straight portion of lateral line (Ref. 13442).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 25.2 - 28, mean 27.3 (based on 368 cells).

Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00529 - 0.01890), b=3.09 (2.93 - 3.25), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisch niveau (Ref. 69278): 4.5 ±0.7 se; based on diet studies.

Weerstandsvermogen (Ref. 120179): Zeer laag, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd meer dan 14 jaar (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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

Prijsklasse (Ref. 80766): Very high.
