Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 0; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 192 - 27. Body moderately slender, moderately compressed, belly with 17 to 21 (usually 19 or 20) + 12 to 16 (usually 14 or 15), total 32 to 37 (usually 34 or 35) scutes; no pre-dorsal scutes. Snout projecting slightly; gill rakers of first arch at least 3/4 length of gill filaments. Vertebrae 46 to 51 (usually 49, also 48 or 51). A dark spot behind gill opening, followed by several lines of dark dots.

Found off coasts and in bays, but migrating into shallower brackish water for breeding, at least in Ariake Sound (south Kyushu), where spawning takes place far up the Sound in April and May. Individuals apparently spawn twice or more during the season.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 16.1 - 23.8, mean 20.3 °C (based on 86 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 1.0000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00912 (0.00601 - 0.01383), b=3.04 (2.92 - 3.16), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 2.9 ±0.24 se; based on food items.

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Assuming tm=1).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (36 of 100).

Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649): High to very high vulnerability (65 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Low.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 99.3 [58.4, 169.9] mg/100g; Iron = 1.61 [0.98, 2.68] mg/100g; Protein = 19.4 [18.3, 20.4] %; Omega3 = 0.587 [0.361, 0.921] g/100g; Selenium = 18.9 [10.5, 35.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 21.3 [8.9, 51.4] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.13 [0.80, 1.60] mg/100g (wet weight);
