Vertebrae: 24. This species is distinguished by the following set of characters: head length 22.2-25.8 % SL, snout length 16.9-22.6 % HL, upper jaw length 61.8-67.3 % HL and snout length 27.3-34.4 % of upper jaw length; total gill rakers 6-12; scale rows below lateral line 15-18; vomerine tooth patch is rounded; tip of pectoral fin extending beyond the level of tip of appressed pelvic fin; lateral line steeply curved anteriorly; black spot distally on anterior dorsal fin absent (Ref. 129587).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = No PD50 data   [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):  3.9   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low to moderate vulnerability (27 of 100).
