Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 13; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 8; Spine anali: 1; Raggi anali molli: 9; Vertebre: 27. Body densely covered with modified scales which form spinous points, best developed anteriorly; depth greater than 1/3 SL.. Lachrymal with 2 strong sharp spines, the first notably curved. Second infraorbital bone without spines, a prominent elongate slit lateral line pore. Uppermost preopercular lateral-line pores with finger-like cirri. Mouth very strongly upturned. Interorbit with prominent ridges, divergent anteriorly, convergent over middle of interorbit, strongly divergent posteriorly (Ref. 35984, 39602).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.6250 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
