Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria


Body shape (shape guide): eel-like.

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Preferred habitat is uncertain. Some specimens have been dredged, others have been taken among loose seaweed and floating dead Zostera sp. Over fine sand bottom. Ovoviviparous (Ref. 205). The male carries the eggs in a brood pouch which is found under the tail (Ref. 205). Males may be brooding at 12.3 cm SL.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Fonte Biblio. 123201): 15.1 - 23.3, mean 17.8 °C (based on 264 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Fonte Biblio. 82804):  PD50 = 0.7500   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00037 (0.00016 - 0.00085), b=3.18 (2.99 - 3.37), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Fonte Biblio. 69278):  3.4   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Fonte Biblio. 120179):  Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (17 of 100). 🛈
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 55.1 [24.8, 145.3] mg/100g; Iron = 0.717 [0.373, 1.279] mg/100g; Protein = 19 [18, 20] %; Omega3 = 0.175 [0.094, 0.320] g/100g; Selenium = 13 [6, 30] μg/100g; VitaminA = 46.6 [14.0, 165.7] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.16 [0.72, 1.81] mg/100g (wet weight);
