Description synthétique Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie

Épines dorsales (Total) : 1; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 4 - 5; Épines anales: 0; Rayons mous anaux: 4; Vertèbres: 20. A large median and two small lateral oval caruncles immediately in front of origin of dorsal fin (Ref. 13608). Branchiostegal rays: 6 (Ref. 36494).

Males dwarfed, becoming parasitic on females. Maximum size of free-living males is 1.05 cm (Ref. 4494). Females are oviparous, with planktonic larvae (Ref. 36494). Eggs are presumably contained in floating gelatinous rafts (Ref. 36494 ).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 2.8 - 10.4, mean 5.6 (based on 2308 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 1.0625 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01995 (0.00906 - 0.04395), b=3.01 (2.83 - 3.19), in cm Total Length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 4.5 ±0.37 se; based on food items.

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Milieu, temps minimum de doublement de population : 1,4 à 4,4 années (tm=5).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (34 of 100).
