Kurzbeschreibung Bestimmungsschlüssel | Morphologie | Morphometrie

Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 0; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 134 - 148; Afterflossenstacheln: 0; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 111 - 123; Wirbelzahl: 75 - 80. This species is characterized by the following: usual number of vertebrae, precaudal 16 (14-17), caudal 60-62 (59-64), total 76-78 (75-80); fin rays, dorsal 138-146 (134-148), anal 117-120 (111-123) pectoral 23-24 (21-25); pyloric caeca 4-5 (3-6), usually 3-4 in one whorl, 1-2 in second tier, sometimes 1 in a third tier; first gill arch with rudimentary rakers 3 (2-4) on the upper arm, 4 (sometimes 5) developed but short rakers on lower arm, rudiments anterior on the first arch vary from 1-10 (usually 5-8); total rakers 12-16 (9-18) with most of the variations due to the rudiments; dorsal-fin origin between neural spines 4-5 (26 specimens) or 3-4 (17 specimens) (Ref. 91765).

Common species (Ref. 34024). Adults inhabit soft bottoms, from shallow waters to moderate depths (Ref. 9329). Oviparous, with planktonic larvae (Ref. 36413). Oval, pelagic eggs float in a gelatinous mass (Ref. 205).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 11.9 - 16.8, mean 14.4 °C (based on 59 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00234 (0.00101 - 0.00543), b=3.16 (2.98 - 3.34), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.8 ±0.7 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref. 120179): mittel, Verdopplung der Population dauert 1,4 - 4,4 Jahre. (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (46 of 100).

Preiskategorie (Ref. 80766): Medium.
