Description synthétique Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie

Four bony knobs between and behind the eyes. Skin very rough. Body with 3-4 broad, dark vertical bands (Ref. 35388).

Benthic (Ref. 58426). Feeds on polychaetes, mysids, amphipods and pycnogonids. Spawns probably from June to July, ovarian eggs large and few (up to 220) (Ref. 6696). Female lays 200 eggs with a length of 4.5-5 mm (Ref. 35388).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 0.3 - 7.7, mean 2.6 (based on 243 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5039 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm Total Length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 4.1 ±0.2 se; based on diet studies.

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Faible, temps minimum de doublement de population : 4,5 à 14 années (Fec = 66).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (27 of 100).
