First dorsal spine armed with small barbs, originating over posterior half of eye. Scales on body small, each armed with 1 strong central spinule capped with a fleshy papilla, giving the skin a coarse feel. Caudal peduncle unarmed.

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5039   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01995 (0.00943 - 0.04220), b=2.93 (2.75 - 3.11), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  2.9   ±0.4 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 (11 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 31.8 [12.8, 115.5] mg/100g; Iron = 0.675 [0.303, 1.726] mg/100g; Protein = 18.8 [16.4, 20.9] %; Omega3 = 0.179 [0.082, 0.358] g/100g; Selenium = 17.2 [7.1, 40.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 40.5 [9.9, 171.9] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.85 [0.52, 1.44] mg/100g (wet weight);
