Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 11; Espinas anales: 4 - 5; Radios blandos anales: 43 - 47; Vértebra: 40. Readily distinguished from the other two species of the genus by having more branched rays on the anal fin (43-47, versus 41-43 in R. ogilviei and 38-41 in R. itupiranga). Hooks are present on the anal fin of adult male specimens of R. itupiranga and in one adult male of R. ogilviei but have not been found in males of R. molossus of comparable sizes.

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.6250 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00479 (0.00182 - 0.01257), b=3.13 (2.90 - 3.36), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Nivel trófico (Ref.
69278): 4.1 ±0.7 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resiliencia (Ref.
120179): Alto, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo inferior a 15 meses (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
