Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

This species (probably of medium size) is distinguished by the following set of characters: a small but conspicuous preorbital thorn; velvety dorsal surface of disc which is covered with fine denticles; velvety ventral surface with widely spaced and very fine denticles; long and slender tail, entirely velvety and without enlarged thorns; lateral tail folds are not expanded distally, narrower than tail for their whole length; nasal lobes are not greatly expanded, width of nasal curtain 7.3-8.3% TL; relatively small mouth, width more than 66% of maximum width of nasal curtain and 5.7-6.2% TL; anterior pelvic-fin lobe is shorter than posterior lobe; dorsal surfaces plain pale yellowish brown, ventral surface creamy white; total pectoral-fin radials 64-66, monospondylous centra 25, total diplospondylous centra 119-127, total number of centra 144-152 (Ref. 91035).

Found on nearby insular slope. Life history unknown (Ref. 114953).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 8.5 - 9.8, mean 8.6 °C (based on 6 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5001 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.7 ±0.7 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 4.5 - 14 anni (Preliminary low fecundity).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (30 of 100).
