Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 67 - 77; Raggi anali molli: 51 - 57; Vertebre: 39 - 41. This species is distinguished by the following characters: Vertebrae 11 + 28-30 = 39-41, dorsal fin rays 67-77, anal fin rays 51-57, outer pseudoclasper with a single, long supporter, extruding into spine-like tip; inner pseudoclasper is slender with a long, straight supporter, almost length of supporter of outer pseudoclasper with ligamentous connection to outer pseudoclasper anteriorly; penis tapering; opercular spine with single sharp tip; scale patch on cheeks with 6-9 vertical scale rows; otolith length: height ratio 2.2-2.3 (Ref. 57883).

Habitat not known; no ripe females were observed (Ref. 57883).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 26.8 - 29.1, mean 28.3 °C (based on 118 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.3 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
