Short description Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría

Espinas dorsales (total) : 0; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 0; Espinas anales: 0; Radios blandos anales: 0; Vértebra: 134 - 145. Chestnut brown species that becomes darker posteriorly. Differs from the uniformly brown G. pindae by lacking the fine serrations on the posterior edges of the lower jaw teeth and by having a mouth that may not quite close completely.

Inhabits relatively turbid areas of sheltered lagoon reefs (Ref. 1602, 37816). Including mangroves in 1-20 m (Ref 90102). Minimum depth reported taken from Ref. 86942.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 24.4 - 29.3, mean 28.4 (based on 3191 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00047 (0.00025 - 0.00089), b=3.28 (3.13 - 3.43), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 4.0 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Bajo, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo de 4.5-14 años (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (52 of 100).
