Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

This species is distinguished from all its congeners, except J. darwini, J. onca, J. sanctaecatarinae, J. maculata, J. luxata, by having a colour pattern of round or dash-shaped marks forming multiple rows; differs from J. onca and J. sanctaecatarinae by having the swelling between the urogenital opening and the base of the anal fin of females (vs. no swelling); differs from J. onca by not having a distinct dorsal convex expansion at subdistal segments of the right hemitrich of anal-fin ray six of adult males (vs. presence); differs from J. maculata with left and right halves of anal-fin ray six laterally paired in adult males (vs. not laterally paired); differs from J. luxata with medial processes of left and right pelvic bones overlapping at the ventral midline (vs. reduced processes not overlapping); differs from J. darwini by the dorsal postcleithrum being less than twice as deep as wide (vs. three times deeper than wide) and the female colour pattern in the half of the caudal peduncle with rows of aligned spots forming lines (vs. segmented in unaligned spots) (Ref. 128887).
Cross section: oval.

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturità | Riproduzione | Deposizione | Uova | Fecundity | Larve

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Fonte Biblio. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01380 (0.01013 - 0.01881), b=3.13 (3.04 - 3.22), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Fonte Biblio. 69278):  2.9   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Fonte Biblio. 120179):  Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Fec=10-60; gestation usually lasts 6 weeks; tm=1; K=1.04-2.46).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low to moderate vulnerability (31 of 100). 🛈
Price category (Ref. 80766):   Unknown.
