Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 0; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 83 - 92; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 64 - 74. In males, the 1st and 2nd rays of the pectoral fin become filamentous (Ref. 35237).
Found on soft bottoms of the continental plateau (Ref. 5217, 5377). Feeds on worms and crustaceans. Exhibits sexual dimorphism (Ref. 35237).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD50 = 0.5039 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00977 (0.00418 - 0.02283), b=3.07 (2.86 - 3.28), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.3 ±0.39 se; based on food items.
Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (30 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 99.6 [49.0, 182.3] mg/100g; Iron = 0.834 [0.376, 1.552] mg/100g; Protein = 16.1 [13.8, 18.5] %; Omega3 = 0.191 [0.080, 0.420] g/100g; Selenium = 88.8 [44.8, 183.2] μg/100g; VitaminA = 26.1 [7.9, 78.2] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.18 [0.79, 1.69] mg/100g (wet weight);
