Short description Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría

Espinas dorsales (total) : 12 - 15; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 19 - 21; Espinas anales: 2; Radios blandos anales: 8 - 9. This species is distinguished from all its congeners in the Atlantic with a horizontal or inferior mouth by having a large, oblique mouth and large eye (3.8-4.5 in HL); differs from S. collettei and S. macallisteri by their smaller eye, 5.0-7.1 and 4.4-5.4 in HL, respectively; differs from other moderately large-eyed species as follows: from S. griseus by having fewer gill rakers 31-38 (vs. 52-59); from S. cervigoni and S. rastrifer by their jet-black lining under gill cover, pale in S. musicki; from S. stellifer by the several small, finely serrated spines instead of 3 to 4 distinct strong spines at the lower corner of preopercle (Ref. 125562).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = No PD50 data [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00813 (0.00390 - 0.01696), b=3.09 (2.92 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 3.3 ±0.2 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Alto, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo inferior a 15 meses (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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