Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range Ecologia

marino demersale. Subtropical; 38°N - 10°N, 62°E - 138°E (Ref. 114953)

Distribuzione Stati | Aree FAO | Ecosystems | Presenze | Point map | Introduzioni | Faunafri

Indo–West Pacific; Pakistan to East China Sea (Shanghai), including Taiwan and possibly Japan and Philippines. Conservation status maybe of concern in Northwest Pacific because of its inshore benthic habitat, low abudance, and the presence of intensive demersal fisheries (Ref. 47737).

Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Preorbital length about equal to preoral length (and much greater than prenasal length), and dark brown spots that are usually greater than eye diameter over a brown background (Ref. 49866).

Found in continental waters, both inshore and offshore (Ref. 9912). Biology little known (Ref. 9912). Maturity size of males at ca. 24 cm TL, birth size at ca. 11 cm TL (Ref. 114953).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 22.8 - 28.6, mean 27.1 °C (based on 1300 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01175 (0.00470 - 0.02937), b=2.88 (2.66 - 3.10), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 4.5 - 14 anni (Assuming fecundity<100).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (25 of 100).
