Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 0; Anal spines: 0. Head profile rounded; snout short, blunt. Scales deciduous, with 1 to 3 divergent rows of small, thin spinules uniformly covering almost all of the body; scales absent over most of the snout and in wide patches on the head surrounding large pores of sensory lateralis system. Pyloric caeca rather long and slender, about 9 to 10. Overall color is dark brown to brownish black.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): -0.1 - 2.9, mean 0.7 °C (based on 1002 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 1.0000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00219 (0.00111 - 0.00431), b=3.20 (3.03 - 3.37), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.4   ±0.40 se; based on food items.
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  Very Low, minimum population doubling time more than 14 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Moderate vulnerability (40 of 100).
Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649):  High to very high vulnerability (66 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 27.5 [8.7, 63.6] mg/100g; Iron = 0.343 [0.151, 0.967] mg/100g; Protein = 17.1 [15.2, 18.8] %; Omega3 = 0.123 [0.047, 0.306] g/100g; Selenium = 23.5 [7.5, 64.5] μg/100g; VitaminA = 32.1 [4.1, 267.0] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.518 [0.280, 1.039] mg/100g (wet weight);
