Short description Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri

Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 11 - 12; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 15 - 17; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 2; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 14 - 16; Ryggkotor: 30 - 31. Light tan to brown in color; caudal fin dusky, other fins clear (Ref. 4412). Teeth patches on midline of roof of mouth and tongue large, broad and granular (sometimes partly obscured by mucous) (Ref 9834).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 8.7 - 19, mean 12.7 °C (based on 823 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5010 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00871 (0.00383 - 0.01980), b=3.08 (2.87 - 3.29), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 3.6 ±0.2 se; based on diet studies.

Generation time: 1.5 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2 growth studies.

Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Mellan, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid 1,4-4,4 år (Assuming tmax>4).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (11 of 100).
