Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 9 - 10; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 13 - 14; Raggi anali molli: 7 - 8. Differs from all members of the complex in having in the breeding male the horizontal lines restricted to a series of long dark dashes, and upper sides with a zone of light tan extending the length of the body. It differs from all other species by modally having 8 anal rays and 6 scales below the lateral line (Ref. 27671).

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=0.00537 (0.00235 - 0.01227), b=3.14 (2.94 - 3.34), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.3   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
