Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

Body elongate, moderately deep, and compressed; snout slightly pointed; adipose eyelid poorly developed; lower branch of the first gill arch with 28 to 30 gill rakers; chest entirely covered by scales; lateral line arched anteriorly, with 46 to 53 strong scutes in the straight part; back gray blue; belly silvery with green-gold highlights; 8 to 9 incomplete, dark, vertical bars along the flanks; edge of operculum with a very conspicuous black stain (Ref. 55763).

Adults inhabit coastal and oceanic waters (Ref. 9283). They feed on small fishes, crustaceans and other benthic invertebrates (Ref. 37955). Marketed fresh and salted or dried (Ref. 9283).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 21.8 - 28.5, mean 26.3 °C (based on 52 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01738 (0.00796 - 0.03794), b=2.94 (2.77 - 3.11), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.7 ±0.54 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): Low to moderate vulnerability (27 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): High.
