Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 10; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 16; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 7. This species is distinguished by the following characters: D X,16; A III,7; pectoral rays 19-21; lateral line scales 63-54; gill rakers 8+18-19; moderately elongated body with depth 3.86-4.6 in SL; head length 3.41-3.54 in SL; snout 3.86-4.0 in HL; forked caudal fin with filamentous rays, caudal concavity 8.36-8.5 in SL; pectoral fins 3.86-4.38 in SL; pelvic fins 5.67-6.54 in SL. Colour when alive: head excluding operculum is predominately yellow (many scales with yellow margins and pink centers), yellow extending posteriorly on upper half of body from a line starting approximately from the tip of the opercular flap and top of pectoral fins to the eighth dorsal ray, then fading to bright pink posteriorly; from operculum to lower half of body is salmon pink; pale pectoral and pelvic fins, dorsal fins yellow with pink bases at the rear dorsal rays anal fin rays yellow with pale membranes; upper and lower base of caudal fin pink, extending posteriorly to approximately halfway to the tips; the center of base of caudal fin is white, then fading to pale; posterior half of caudal fin is yellow, lower base of caudal peduncle with yellow band (Ref. 116681).
Minimum depth reported taken from Ref. 128797.

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = No PD50 data [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.4 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
