Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal soft rays (total): 31; Anal soft rays: 17; Vertebrae: 39. This species is distinguished from its congeners in the long-barbeled plunderfish in the mentella group by the following set of characters: long mental barbel (68.0-70.0% of HL), sarment-shaped with a thin terminal expansion (esca width 5.9-8.1% of barbel length) composed of rows of short and flattened incubous processes; large number of anterior teeth in the lower jaw near symphysis (19-30 left, 21-31 right) arranged in two or more rows; seismosensory system canals on the top of the head have very small pores; weakly developed internasal organ. Colour of peritoneum light, almost white, with rare pigmental macules (Ref. 95071).

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=0.00501 (0.00240 - 0.01046), b=3.13 (2.94 - 3.32), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.4   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (24 of 100).
