Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range Ecologia

marino; distribuzione batimetrica 0 - 150 m (Ref. 30573). Tropical; 30°N - 30°S, 30°E - 162°E

Distribuzione Stati | Aree FAO | Ecosystems | Presenze | Point map | Introduzioni | Faunafri

Indo-West Pacific: tropical, widespread. Questionably occurring in the Mascarenes (Ref. 33390). Distribution is probably similar to that of Chirocentrus dorab but not always distinguished from that species (Ref. 188).

Size / Peso / Age

Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Diagnosis: The slightly longer pectoral fin, 13-18% of standard length, and the absence of black markings on the dorsal fin tip are the only satisfactory characters separating this species from Chirocentrus dorab; also there is no black on the anterior part of the anal fin (Ref. 188).

Pelagic in coastal waters, from the shore to a depth of about 150 m (Ref. 30573). It feeds on small fish and crustaceans (Ref. 5213, 30573). Marketed fresh or frozen.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 24.3 - 29.1, mean 28 (based on 2510 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 1.0000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00575 (0.00294 - 0.01127), b=3.00 (2.82 - 3.18), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.2 ±0.74 se; based on food items.

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (K=0.24).

Prior r = 0.58, 95% CL = 0.38 - 0.87, Based on 2 data-limited stock assessments.

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (53 of 100).

Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649): High vulnerability (64 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Medium.
