Validity of genus unclear.
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Écologie
marin démersal; profondeur ? - 300 m (Ref. 2683). Subtropical; - 23°S
Eastern Atlantic: off northwestern Africa south to 23°S; also in the Mediterranean.
Length at first maturity / Taille / Poids / Âge
Maturity: Lm 12.0  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 39.7 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 107756); common length : 15.0 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 3397)
Adults inhabit soft bottoms from the coastline to about 300 m depth, but rarely caught at depths greater than 200 m (Ref. 9537). They feed on small fish and crustaceans (Ref. 231).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 11.8 - 19.5, mean 15.2 °C (based on 256 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 1.0156 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00603 (0.00485 - 0.00748), b=3.07 (3.00 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref.
93245).
Niveau trophique (Ref.
69278): 4.0 ±0.65 se; based on food items.
Résilience (Ref.
120179): Milieu, temps minimum de doublement de population : 1,4 à 4,4 années (K=0.26-0.30).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
