Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 1; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 79 - 89; Spine anali: 1; Raggi anali molli: 79 - 89; Vertebre: 64 - 66. This species is distinguished by the following set of characters: body relatively deep, its depth at anal-fin origin 17-18% SL; greatest body depth 1.8-2.1 times length of longest first dorsal-fin ray; snout relatively long, horizontal length 4.8-5.6% SL; horizontal diameter of eye 5.3-5.5% SL, 1.1-1.2 times interorbital width; interorbital width relatively broad 4.3-4.8% SL; orbit-upper jaw relatively broad, width 2.7-3.4 % SL; caudal peduncle relatively narrow, its depth 1.3-1.6% SL; caudal-fin length 18-25 times caudal peduncle length; anal-fin base relatively long, length 54-57% SL; length of longest pelvic-fin ray 26-34% SL, 2.3-2.9 times length of longest first dorsal-fin ray; length of longest first dorsal-fin ray 11-12% SL; absence of accessory caudal-fin bones X and Y ; first ventral procurrent ray linked to hemal spine of vertebrae 7-8; dorsal-fin rays total 79-89; anal-fin rays total 79-89; pectoral-fin rays 21-23; caudal-fin rays 30-35; primary rakers in outer gill arch 17-19; total vertebrae 64-66; scales relatively large, ~18 in transverse line from anal-fin base posteriorly to dorsal margin of body (Ref. 122017).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = No PD50 data [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.5 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
