Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 8; Dorsal soft rays (total): 16-17; Anal spines: 3; Anal soft rays: 14. This species is characterized by the following features: Cheek and breast naked; fully scaled dorsolateral body surface; anteroventral profile of the lower jaw usually strongly concave; upper oral valve with minute, sparse, slender projections; bicuspid or tricuspid preorbital spine, expanded distally; elongated second dorsal fin spine, reaching beyond base of fifth soft ray when fin is appressed; second anal fin spine not elongated, not extending to the base of fifth soft ray when fin appressed (Ref. 74926).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 28.4 - 29.2, mean 28.9 °C (based on 156 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5078   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01862 (0.00823 - 0.04215), b=2.97 (2.78 - 3.16), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  2.9   ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
