Kurzbeschreibung Morphologie | Morphometrie

Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt): 11; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt): 10-12; Afterflossenstacheln 2; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 10 - 11; Wirbelzahl: 26. This species is distinguished by the following characters: with a rigid upper jaw lacking flexible lamina posteriorly, extending about 1.0 eye diameter behind posterior margin of orbit; infraorbitals are moderately tubular, with large openings for sensory canals, the third infraorbital largest with very short posterolateral projecting arm ending with sensory canal opening, no suborbital shelf; D XI,10-12; A II,10-11; vertebrae 10 + 16; scale rows in horizontal series about 41-47; nape naked; outer premaxillary teeth are relatively straight with distinctly blunt tips. Colouration: soft dorsal and anal fins each with two pale stripes; caudal fin with one pale band; pelvic fin bicolored, dark except for the pale unbranched outer two rays and interradial membrane (Ref. 128653).

A rare species. Mouthbrooders (Ref. 240).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01122 (0.00514 - 0.02450), b=3.04 (2.87 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.5 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

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