Short description Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri

Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 5; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 5. This species is distinguished by the following characters: 12 tail rings with the anteriormost 9 mobile, articulating laterally, and remaining 3 are fused together, attenuated and dorsoventrally flattened; terminodorsal-lateral (tdl) and terminoventral-lateral (tvl) plates each with an anteriorly and posteriorly directed spine; no terminal-lateral plates (tl); with interpectoral plate (ip); with a single ventral preopercular notch; spatulate rostrum; carapace with 3 small posteriorly directed tubercles along each of the dorsal ridge, one at the centre of each dorsal plate; no scales on orbit; pectoral-fin soft rays 9-10 (usually 10), the 5th ray stouter than other rays; 7 abdominal centra, 14 caudal centra, 21 total centra; 4 dark saddles on tail and without dark saddle on tail ring XI (Ref. 117113).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5781 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 3.3 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
