Description synthétique Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie

This elongated and broadly cylindrical species is distinguished by having the following characters: pectoral fins high on sides, strikingly long, always extending beyond dorsal-fin origin; no spines on fins; small and conical teeth in jaws in one irregular row; no three-cuspid teeth; no palatine teeth; juveniles (25-60 mm) without barbel and with six bands on belly (Ref. 87965).

Found in near-shore surface waters, never spread to open sea. Feeds on zooplankton and small fish (Ref. 9839).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 24.6 - 29.3, mean 28.5 °C (based on 3038 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5002 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00646 (0.00292 - 0.01429), b=3.04 (2.84 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 4.0 ±0.64 se; based on food items.

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Haut, temps minimum de doublement de population inférieur à 15 mois (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (12 of 100).
