Kurzbeschreibung Bestimmungsschlüssel | Morphologie | Morphometrie

Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 72 - 88; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 55 - 70; Wirbelzahl: 40 - 45. This species is distinguished by the following characters: D 72-88; A 55-70; moderately large eyes (1.7-2.8%SL); slender body; blunt snout, many cirri; cheeks with scales and rarely 1-2 scales above opercular spine; with upper preopercular pore; outer pseudoclasper broad-based, large, often extending beyond hood when in resting position, while the inner one is small, with equal anterior and posterior lobes; otolith length to height 1.9-2.1, with gently curved dorsal rim; otolith length to sulcus length 1.5-1.6, ostium length to caudal length 3.5-4.5; vertebrae 11-12 + 29-33 = 40-45 (Ref. 81230).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 24.3 - 29.3, mean 28.4 (based on 2464 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5005   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm Total Length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.3   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
