Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Thinner and more slender body. Skin with small, smooth scales, without bony tubercle. Able to change color of the eyed side, matching the bottom they rest on. Color is often olive green, with dark and light spots (Ref. 35388).
Lives on sandy or mixed bottoms; feeds on bottom-living fishes and larger crustaceans. Marketed fresh and frozen; eaten steamed, fried, broiled, boiled, microwaved and baked (Ref. 9988).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 8.4 - 19.5, mean 11.2 °C (based on 472 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD50 = 0.5645 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01096 (0.00893 - 0.01346), b=3.01 (2.95 - 3.07), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.4 ±0.1 se; based on diet studies.
Generation time: 4.1 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2 growth studies.
Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (tm=-5; tmax=6).
Prior r = 0.47, 95% CL = 0.31 - 0.70, Based on 5 full stock assessments.
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (36 of 100).
Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649): Moderate to high vulnerability (54 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 37.7 [14.9, 70.5] mg/100g; Iron = 0.174 [0.061, 0.770] mg/100g; Protein = 19.3 [17.8, 20.8] %; Omega3 = 0.262 [0.140, 0.491] g/100g; Selenium = 14 [6, 33] μg/100g; VitaminA = 8.74 [1.87, 40.75] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.145 [0.082, 0.500] mg/100g (wet weight); based on nutrient studies.
