Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Vertebre: 142 - 148. Head and body with white spots. Lower jaw moderate in size, premaxillary teeth not exposed when closed. Upper lip groove deep (appearing folded up). Maxillary teeth arranged in almost 1 row. Preanal lateral line pores 39-43 (Ref. 41299).

Common on coasts of Japan, in sandy-muddy bottoms (also Ref. 11230); most relished among the congrids. Captured and cultured for fishery in Japan.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 0.5 - 13.5, mean 8.8 (based on 41 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00058 (0.00036 - 0.00092), b=3.23 (3.10 - 3.36), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.0 ±0.68 se; based on food items.

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Assuming tm>4).

Prior r = 0.51, 95% CL = 0.33 - 0.76, Based on 1 data-limited stock assessment.

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (53 of 100).

Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649): High to very high vulnerability (73 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Low.
