Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 6; Raggi anali molli: 4; Vertebre: 18. Disk rounded and compressed, with cranium moderately elevated and bulbous rostrum rising slightly above it and extending anterior to mouth. Ventral surface without tubercles. Very wide mouth with lower jaw projecting. Trilobed esca with masses of short filaments, except dorsal tip of dorsal lobe. Cephalic lateral line scale counts: preopercular 3; subopercular 6-7; dorsolateral branch of subopercular 3-4; supraorbital 9. Lateral line scale counts on body 9-10; tail 11-13. Fins weak; anal relatively long, reaching base of caudal (Ref. 40825).
Minimum depth from Ref. 58018.

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 11.3 - 18.8, mean 13.1 °C (based on 78 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5010 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02291 (0.00925 - 0.05675), b=2.94 (2.72 - 3.16), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.

Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.2 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
