South America: Caribbean and Atlantic draining rivers and estuaries from Colombia to Brazil.

Length at first maturity / Taille / Poids / Âge

Maturity: L_m 50.8, range 45 - 56.5 cm
Max length : 94.2 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 10652); 62.5 cm TL (female); common length : 30.0 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 3265); poids max. publié: 1.5 kg (Ref. 5217)

Adults occur in turbid estuaries, mangrove-lined lagoons and lower parts of rivers being very tolerant to changes in salinity. Found on shallow soft bottoms (Ref. 5217). Feed on a large variety of bottom-living and pelagic organisms including those found among the roots of mangroves. Reproduction occurs between September and December. A female lays 20-30 eggs, with a diameter of 10-12 mm. Males incubate the eggs in their mouth (Ref. 35381).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturities | Reproduction | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | Larves

Females reach maturity at a younger age than males and grow faster. The male incubates 28-40 eggs in the mouth and 200-400 eggs that are fixed in a glutinous mass on its head. Incubation takes 10-12 days. After 50-60 days fully functional young (6-6.5 cm TL) are released.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 23.4 - 27.9, mean 25.6 °C (based on 428 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5039 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00575 (0.00474 - 0.00698), b=3.13 (3.07 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 3.3 ±0.39 se; based on food items.

Generation time: 3.8 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Milieu, temps minimum de doublement de population : 1,4 à 4,4 années (tm=2-3; Fec=200).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (39 of 100).

Catégorie de prix (Ref. 80766): Medium.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 93.2 [51.2, 182.5] mg/100g; Iron = 0.957 [0.621, 1.530] mg/100g; Protein = 16.8 [15.2, 18.5] %; Omega3 = 0.155 [0.087, 0.265] g/100g; Selenium = 75.6 [42.4, 141.5] μg/100g; VitaminA = 11 [5, 23] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.14 [0.79, 1.68] mg/100g (wet weight); based on nutrient studies.
