Short description Morfologi | Morfometri

Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 7; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 8; Taggstrålar i analfenan 0; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 6. Pectoral fin very large and fan-like, with front 6 rays separated as small lobe (Ref. 26938).

Found on sand, mud or over rocks in sandy areas, exploring the bottom with the free part of the pectoral fins (Ref. 6544). Feeds primarily on benthic crustaceans, especially crabs, clams and small fishes. Neither anterolateral glandural groove nor venom gland is present (Ref. 57406).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 13.3 - 27.8, mean 23.9 °C (based on 1072 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82805): PD₅₀ = 1.0078 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00977 (0.00739 - 0.01292), b=2.98 (2.90 - 3.06), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 3.7 ±0.5 se; based on diet studies.

Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Hög, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid mindre än 15 månader (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (31 of 100) .
