Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale): 8; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 10-11; Spine anali 1; Raggi anali molli: 8 - 10; Vertebre: 27. This species is distinguished by having all taxonomic characters present in most members of Gobiosomatini and Gobiosoma group (i.e., first dorsal-fin spines VII, pterygiophore insertion pattern of 3-221110, vertebrae 27, precaudal 11 and caudal 16, hypurals 1 and 2 fused to some extent with hypurals 3 and 4 and the terminal vertebral element, 1 epural); pelvic fins are well separated, lacking both the anterior frenum and well-developed membrane connecting innermost rays (inter-radial membrane better developed in larvae); pelvic-fin rays 1-5, branched (the fifth ray branched only in mature adults), without fleshy or flattened tips; pelvic-fin rays extending posteriorly to about halfway to the anus or slightly further, but never reaching anus; no scales on the body (modified basicaudal scales absent); two anal-fin pterygiophores are inserted before first haemal spine; no cephalic sensory canals; D2 I,10-11; A I,8-10; body with diffuse dark saddles and a series of evenly spaced midlateral blotches on side of body; anterior profile of head blunt and nearly vertical (Ref. 113825).

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 1.0000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00708 (0.00333 - 0.01504), b=3.09 (2.92 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.2   ±0.3 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 (10 of 100).
