Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 44.5 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 11976)

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Benthic; feeds on crustaceans (Ref. 58426). Switches feeding habits with increasing size. Smaller eelpouts eat mainly endobenthic prey, larger individuals feed more on epibenthic prey (Ref. 13532).

Estimates of some properties based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): -0.9 - 4, mean 0.8 (based on 1789 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82805):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00224 (0.00105 - 0.00476), b=3.25 (3.07 - 3.43), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic Level (Ref. 69278):  3.5   ±0.50 se; Based on food items.
Resilience (Ref. 69278):  Very Low, minimum population doubling time more than 14 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  High to very high vulnerability (65 of 100) .
