Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 34; Raggi anali molli: 31 - 32; Vertebre: 20. Diagnosis: Head relatively acute, with upper profile of snout concave. First dorsal spine armed with small barbs, originating over posterior half of eye. Scales on body small, each armed with 1 strong central spinule capped with a fleshy papilla, giving the skin a coarse feel. Caudal peduncle unarmed. Color pattern consists of 4-5 brown longitudinal body stripes on a white background, 2 of which continue anteriorly on head and posteriorly on upper and lower rays of caudal fin (Re. 35708).

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Found mostly in deep coastal reefs, in sponge areas (Ref. 9002). Young are mainly found with kelp (Ref. 9002).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5039   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01995 (0.00943 - 0.04220), b=2.93 (2.75 - 3.11), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  2.9   ±0.4 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 (11 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 31.8 [12.8, 115.5] mg/100g; Iron = 0.675 [0.303, 1.726] mg/100g; Protein = 18.8 [16.4, 20.9] %; Omega3 = 0.179 [0.082, 0.358] g/100g; Selenium = 17.2 [7.1, 40.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 40.5 [9.9, 171.9] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.85 [0.52, 1.44] mg/100g (wet weight);
