Short description Morfología | Morfometría

Espinas dorsales (total): 10; Radios blandos dorsales (total): 9; Espinas anales 3; Radios blandos anales: 7. Suborbital spine absent. Preopercle with 3 transverse scale rows. Pectoral fins long, reaching to or beyond level of anus. Pelvic fins very long, reaching to or just beyond level of anus. A line drawn up from posterior edge of suborbital reaching the dorsal profile at about 2 to 6 scale rows before origin of dorsal fin. Upper lobe of caudal fin slightly longer than lower, tipped with yellow. Females predominate at small sizes, males at larger sizes. Axillary scale present. Color: Upper body pinkish, silvery white below.

Occurs on mud or sand bottoms. Most abundant in depths of 20 to 50 m. Feeds mainly on small shrimps, squid, small fishes and benthic animals.

Life cycle and mating behavior Madurez | Reproducción | Puesta | Huevos | Fecundidad | Larva

Females predominate at small sizes and males at larger sizes as result of faster growth rates in males.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 25 - 29, mean 28.1 °C (based on 1040 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01445 (0.01202 - 0.01738), b=2.97 (2.93 - 3.01), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 3.9 ±0.3 se; based on diet studies.

Generation time: 1.4 (1.1 - 2.3) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 12 growth studies.

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Alto, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo inferior a 15 meses (K=0.4-0.6).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (19 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): High.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 525 [123, 997] mg/100g; Iron = 1.51 [0.47, 4.18] mg/100g; Protein = 17.8 [16.1, 19.4] %; Omega3 = 0.28 [0.13, 0.62] g/100g; Selenium = 36 [14, 111] μg/100g; VitaminA = 17.3 [4.1, 98.1] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.781 [0.446, 2.664] mg/100g (wet weight);
