Maturity: L_m ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 7.2 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 189)

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 0; Anal spines: 0; Anal soft rays: 16. With 7 small needle-like pre-pelvic scutes. Maxilla tip pointed, reaching only just to front border of pre-operculum; hind border of pre-operculum convex, rounded. Isthmus muscle tapering evenly forward to hind border of branchial membrane. Pelvic fin tips presumably not reaching to below dorsal fin origin. No dark pigment lines on back between head and dorsal fin.

Presumably coastal, pelagic and schooling, but more material and data needed. Egg presumed to be oval with a knob (as in S. indicus).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 28 - 28.8, mean 28.3 °C (based on 46 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00537 (0.00249 - 0.01157), b=3.13 (2.96 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Subfamily-BS (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilience (Ref. 120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
