Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 0; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 17 - 19; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 17 - 19. This species is distinguished by the following characters: bluish body, green on dorsum, with silvery flanks; presence of 2 fleshy outgrowths on posterior margin of opercle; deep body cylindrical, belly smooth and round, weakly keeled with eight circular-shaped pre-pelvic scutes; 7 branchiostegial rays; 7-14 fronto-parietalstriae; eyes huge; median notch on upper jaw; dorsal fin is inserted at about midpoint of body; pelvic fins are below dorsal fin base, fin rays 7; anal fin is very short and inserted far posterior to dorsal fin base; gill rakers 57-63; cycloid scales; posterior margin of the scales striated with many vertical lines from anterior of scale extending to centre of scale (Ref. 116583).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5625 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00871 (0.00415 - 0.01826), b=3.06 (2.89 - 3.23), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.0 ±0.3 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. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
