Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

Raggi anali molli: 8. Iotichthys phlegethontis can be distinguished by the following characters: no lateral line (rarely 1-2 pores at front); large scales (34-38 lateral); dorsal-fin origin behind pelvic-fin origin; slender peduncle; 8 anal-fin rays; pharyngeal teeth 2,5-4,2; large eye; short rounded snout; fairly deep, compressed body; color consists of olive above, black specks on back and side, gold stripe along blue side, white to yellow fins; and red-gold lower side, gold eye and anal fins in breeding males (Ref. 86798).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 1.0000   [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):  3.0   ±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 (10 of 100).
