Épines dorsales (Total) : 0; Épines anales: 0. Upper surface wholly prickly, underside almost entirely prickly; orbital thorns separate, a regular row of 21-25 large thorns from nape to first dorsal fin; upper surface dark brown with a constant pattern of irregular light spots forming broad undulating transverse bands with narrower unspotted bands between, underside white, but grey on snout and broad dark margin to disc from behind midpoint of anterior margin, also blackish at tip of tail (Ref. 3167).

Estimates based on models

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00269 (0.00124 - 0.00582), b=3.26 (3.09 - 3.43), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 3.5 ±0.37 se; based on food items.

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Faible, temps minimum de doublement de population : 4,5 à 14 années (Fec assumed to be <100).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (54 of 100).

Catégorie de prix (Ref. 80766): Medium.
