Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics
Vertebrae: 59 - 62. Dorsal fin without notch, if present, very shallow. Lateral lines 5. Strongly developed ridges on the upper surface of the skull.
Juveniles form large schools near the surface; adults are benthic (Ref. 559). Utilized fresh, dried or salted and frozen; can be pan-fried and broiled (Ref. 9988).
Life cycle and mating behavior Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae
Female deposits egg mass in crevices or gravel in rocky coast less than 20 m depth. Male guards the eggs.

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 2.7 - 20.5, mean 12.8 °C (based on 76 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD50 = 0.7502 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00832 (0.00417 - 0.01659), b=3.09 (2.91 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.6 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Generation time: 4.4 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.
Resilience (Ref. 120179): Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Assuming tm=2-4).
