Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 7; Dorsal soft rays (total): 10; Anal spines: 9-10; Vertebrae: 27. This species is distinguished by the following characters: alternating grey or reddish grey and yellow bars on head and body; nape half to completely scaled with about 4-7 predorsal scales; 18 pectoral fin rays, 8 unbranched rays; unbranched fifth pelvic-fin ray, about 50% to 80% length of fourth ray; interorbital region has a well-developed U-shaped trench and postorbital trenches (Ref. 112075).

Its cryptic habits and small size make it difficult to observe and collect this species (Ref. 112075).

Estimates based on models

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01023 (0.00477 - 0.02194), b=3.02 (2.84 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Resilience (Ref. 120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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