Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

Vertebre: 31. Distinguished from congeners by the following combination of characters: body very slender, depth 18.4-23.4% SL: head length 20.6-26.6% SL; snout length 8.1-10.8% SL; upper jaw length 4.3-7.2% SL; mouth subterminal; all fins and lower portion of the head cherry red in adults; caudal fin with broadly blackened distal margin; upper jaw darkly pigmented, appearing as a mustache; lateral stripe, when present, from opercle margin to tip of middle caudal rays; anal fin rays 11(one specimen with 10); lateral line scales 36-41; scales above lateral line 4-5; scales below lateral line 4 (one specimen with 5); premaxillary teeth 4 (one specimen with 3); and dentary teeth 3-4 (Ref. 30270).

Distinct pairs breed on densely grown weedy places (Ref. 205).

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=0.01096 (0.00540 - 0.02227), b=3.07 (2.90 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 2.3 ±0.1 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (21 of 100).
