Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 5 - 7; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 9 - 11; Spine anali: 1; Raggi anali molli: 12 - 16; Vertebre: 39 - 43. This species is distinguished by the following set of characters: lateral process of premaxilla very low and wide; upper margin of dentary almost flat distally, no distinct tubercle at the posterior end; posterior tip of upper jaw reaching to or beyond a vertical through anterior margin of pupil, and rarely reaching to the center of pupil; teeth on endopterygoids small, not forming distinct ridges; anus usually just before the posterior tip of pelvic fin, rarely beyond it; lower gill rakers 19-23; midlateral scale count 38-41; lower margin of midlateral band just reaching to the ventral end of the midlateral (third) scale row or slightly above it at level of anal fin origin (Ref. 58474).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5005 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01122 (0.00514 - 0.02450), b=3.04 (2.87 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.3 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
