Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 11; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 16 - 17; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 8. Distinguished by the following characteristics: subequal body depth and head length, depth contained 2.4 times in SL; convex interorbital area; small and subequal posterior and anterior nostrils; maxilla reaches vertical at rear edge of orbit; 2 rows of teeth on midlateral part of lower jaw (Ref. 89707).

Found on the continental shelf (Ref. 75154). The only two specimens known were collected from the base of a drilling rig at a depth of 130 m.

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01175 (0.00568 - 0.02430), b=3.04 (2.88 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.5 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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