Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 42 - 50; Raggi anali molli: 33 - 38. Blue to brownish in color and darker spots dorsally, silver to whitish ventrally; juveniles with vertical bars on body and small black pelvic fins (Ref. 4410).
Found over continental shelves (Ref. 6561). Young are often found associated with pelagic medusae (Ref. 6561). Form large shoals (Ref. 27121). Feeds on small fishes and zooplankton, also medusae (Ref. 6561).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 14.5 - 27.4, mean 19 (based on 242 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD50 = 0.6250 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01585 (0.00707 - 0.03555), b=3.01 (2.82 - 3.20), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.0 ±0.50 se; based on food items.
Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Assuming tm=2-3).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (44 of 100).
Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649): Low to moderate vulnerability (33 of 100).
