Description synthétique Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie

Épines dorsales (Total) : 11 - 12; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 10 - 11; Épines anales: 3; Rayons mous anaux: 8. Body and fins reddish; anal fin and lower part of caudal fin edged with white.

Inhabit rocky or sandy bottoms; individuals descending to greater depths with growth. The stocks migrate seasonally between the coast and deeper waters in accordance with local hydrographic conditions and their life cycle. Feed mainly on fish and crustaceans; the young on plankton (Ref. 3688). Gonochorists (Ref. 4781).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 13 - 16.8, mean 14.9 (based on 168 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01148 (0.00900 - 0.01464), b=3.03 (3.00 - 3.06), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 3.5 ±0.44 se; based on food items.

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Milieu, temps minimum de doublement de population : 1,4 à 4,4 années (K=0.16-0.25; tmax=13; tm=2).

Prior r = 0.98, 95% CL = 0.65 - 1.47, Based on 1 data-limited stock assessment.

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (51 of 100).

Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649): Low vulnerability (13 of 100).

Catégorie de prix (Ref. 80766): Very high.
