Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

Body elongate and somewhat compressed; dorsal profile slightly concave above the eyes; lateral line extending to posterior edge of caudal fin; second anal spine, when folded down, reaching or surpassing origin of caudal fin; pectoral and pelvic fins sub-equal; first gill arch with 26 to 31 gill rakers; back blue gray; belly white; lateral line pale; membranes between dorsal spines and between second and third anal spines pale (Ref. 55763).

Adults are found mainly in estuaries but also enter freshwater to an elevation of 50 m. Diet consists primarily of fish, crustaceans and mollusks (Ref. 36880).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 24 - 28.6, mean 27.5 °C (based on 26 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5005 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00759 (0.00508 - 0.01134), b=3.03 (2.91 - 3.15), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.8 ±0.59 se; based on food items.

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (36 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Very high.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 187 [113, 334] mg/100g; Iron = 1.62 [0.97, 2.52] mg/100g; Protein = 19.6 [17.2, 21.9] %; Omega3 = 0.299 [0.130, 0.710] g/100g; Selenium = 37.4 [18.2, 81.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 14.5 [5.7, 39.0] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.5 [1.1, 2.1] mg/100g (wet weight);
