Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 6; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 15 - 17; Raggi anali molli: 18. Dark brown to black pigmentation entirely or on most of the membrane of first dorsal fin. Color in alcohol light yellow dorsally, even lighter ventrally. Snout short (1.1-1.2x eye diameter). Scales on lateral and dorsal sides of snout. Upper jaw extending behind anterior margin of eye reaching almost to its mid-line. Lateral line descending adjacent to pectoral fin (Ref 13203).

Occurs in coastal waters (Ref. 6948). Found on soft bottoms of the continental shelf and feeds on fishes (Ref. 3656). Minimum depth range reported from Ref. 26999.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 11 - 13.8, mean 12.4 (based on 6 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00372 (0.00153 - 0.00904), b=3.10 (2.89 - 3.31), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.2 ±0.73 se; based on food items.

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (15 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.
