Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 10 - 11; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 10 - 12; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 8 - 10; Vertebre: 26. This species is distinguished from its congeners by the following characters: D X-XI,10-12 (modally XI,11), total rays 21-22 (22) with the first dorsal-fin spine much shorter than the second, with bases close together; A II,8-10 (II,9), total rays 10-12 (11); head depth 18.8-21.6% (mean 20.0%) of SL; eye set high on the head (horizontal line through top of snout bulge well below the ventral margin of pupil in specimens >60 mm SL); anterior and posterior lacrimal spines are sharp, the anterior spine tip canted anteroventrally while posterior spine tip canted anteroventrally or ventrally in specimens >60 mm SL; skin flap associated with pore above pectoral-fin base long and tentacle-like. Colouration: body entirely pale pink or yellow with narrow dark stripe centrally, no oblique alternating dark and light stripes; pectoral fin inner surface is largely bright yellow (whitish in preserved specimens), basally with dark stripes along rays, distal part largely yellow (whitish) when fresh (Ref. 128010).

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=0.01096 (0.00427 - 0.02816), b=3.03 (2.81 - 3.25), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.6 ±0.7 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.
