Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 12 - 14; Raggi anali molli: 25 - 27. Smooth body without scale, only male has a line of big but thin scale (around 23-24) near the origin of the caudal fin. Dorsal fin is the later part of the back, very small adipose fin. Anal fin is relatively large. White opaque body, becomes milky white when it is dead, its head transparent (Ref. 33336).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5010 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00209 (0.00128 - 0.00340), b=3.17 (3.03 - 3.31), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 365 [131, 1,066] mg/100g; Iron = 2.18 [1.00, 6.06] mg/100g; Protein = 15.8 [13.4, 17.9] %; Omega3 = 0.676 [0.249, 2.094] g/100g; Selenium = 51.7 [17.8, 151.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 13.8 [3.7, 52.9] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.74 [1.01, 2.86] mg/100g (wet weight);
