Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 0; Dorsal soft rays (total): 79 - 86; Anal soft rays: 65 - 69. Dorsal fin origin closer to tip of snout than to anterior edge of eye. Dorsal and anal fins terminate just a little on the blind side of the caudal peduncle. Lateral line forms a distinct curve above the pectoral fin.

Inhabits soft bottoms (Ref. 6501).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturities | Reproduction | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | Larvae

Distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). A determinate spawner (Ref. 72169).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 7.5 - 15.1, mean 11.5 (based on 292 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.7520 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00468 (0.00381 - 0.00575), b=3.12 (3.06 - 3.18), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.7 ±0.3 se; based on diet studies.

Resilience (Ref. 120179): Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (K=0.14-0.26; tmax=13).

Prior r = 0.33, 95% CL = 0.22 - 0.49, Based on 4 full stock assessments.

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (48 of 100).

Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649): Low to moderate vulnerability (30 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Very high.
