Short description
Κλείδες προσδιορισμού | Μορφολογία | Μορφομετρία
Ραχιαίες άκανθες (συνολικά) : 4 - 7; Μαλακές ραχιαίες ακτίνες (συνολικά) : 10 - 13; Εδρικές άκανθες: 0; Μαλακές εδρικές ακτίνες: 18 - 19; Σπόνδυλοι: 23 - 24. Branchiostegal rays: 4 (Ref. 36710).
Found in a wide range of habitats, from near surface to near bottom and sometimes in huge schools (Ref. 2850). May range into coastal waters (Ref. 36711). Oviparous, with planktonic eggs and larvae (Ref. 36711). Seems to be sympatric with Macroramphosus scolopax (Linnaeus, 1758) all around the world (Ref. 89357).
