Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale): 11; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 15; Spine anali 4; Raggi anali molli: 10; Vertebre: 27. The slender, slightly compressed body is probably mainly, if not entirely, red in life; 5 rows of oblique scales on cheek; body slender, the depth 3.1 in SL; head length (HL) 2.55 in SL; very large eye, 2.6 in HL; very narrow suborbital shelf; anterior end of the nasal bone is rounded; moderately large nasal fossa spineless; surface or medial edge of the nasal bone spineless; third dorsal spine longest, 2.2 in HL; spinous and soft portions of dorsal fin completely separated; third anal spine 1.35 in HL; pointed caudal fin lobes (Ref. 27370).

The species may penetrate deeper water (suggested by the large eyes); the 49 m depth could be near the upper limit of its depth range (Ref. 27370).

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=0.01622 (0.00774 - 0.03400), b=2.97 (2.80 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.4 ±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).
