Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 2; Anal spines: 0. Head almost completely scaled, except for the underside of the snout and anteriorly on the mandibular rami. Snout short, pointed, with stout conical tubercle at its tip and lateral angles; suborbital ridge prominent; mouth small; chin barbel very small. Scales rather deciduous; body scales with slender spinules in 7 to 19 parallel rows. Pyloric caeca 11 to 14, about half of orbit diameter, directed anteriorly.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 7.4 - 16.2, mean 12.9 °C (based on 27 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [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):  3.6   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  Very Low, minimum population doubling time more than 14 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Moderate vulnerability (45 of 100).
Price category (Ref. 80766):   Medium.
