Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 13; Dorsal soft rays (total): 13-16; Anal spines : 3; Anal soft rays : 8 - 11; Vertebrae : 26. Head spines weak - nasal, preocular, postocular, tympanic and parietal spines present, supraocular, coronal and nuchal spines absent (Ref. 27437 ). Body slender and elongate; vent midway between origins of pelvic and anal fins (Ref. 27437 ). Posterior margin of caudal fin deeply indented (Ref. 6885 ). Greenish pink dorsally, fading to light ventrally (Ref. 27437 ). Branchiostegal rays: 7 (Ref. 36715 ).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Found in a wide range of habitats, sometimes in large schools well offshore and off bottom (Ref. 2850 ). Juveniles are pelagic (Ref. 36715 ). Adults feed on planktonic animals, mainly krill (Ref. 2850 ). Viviparous, with planktonic larvae (Ref. 36715 ). A very important prey species for predatory fishes and marine mammals (Ref. 2850 ). Not marketed due to its small size (Ref. 2850 ).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 7 - 9.7, mean 8.2 °C (based on 40 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.2   ±0.35 se; based on food items. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (tm=2.5; K=0.18-0.30; tmax=31, Fec=7,000). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Moderate vulnerability (43 of 100).
