Length at first maturity / Size / Weight / Age

Maturity: L m   ? , range 82 - ? cm
Max length : 150 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 6871 )

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Vertebrae : 129 - 138. Head short and very broad. Body robust with inflatable stomach; with dark, mottled and blotched color pattern, and mostly with a dark median stripe on the belly. Labial furrows absent. Denticles large and widely spaced.

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Found on the continental shelf from close inshore in shallow to deeper water. Oviparous, hatching at about 14 cm (Ref. 6871 ). Can expand itself with air or water. Caught by commercial bottom trawlers but of no use to fisheries at present.

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae

Oviparous, paired eggs are laid. Embryos feed solely on yolk (Ref. 50449 ).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 14 - 18.2, mean 16 °C (based on 175 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00263 (0.00139 - 0.00497), b=3.21 (3.04 - 3.38), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  4.3   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Low, minimum population doubling time 4.5 - 14 years (Fec assumed to be <100). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Very high vulnerability (90 of 100). Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 7.44 [1.43, 39.12] mg/100g; Iron = 0.236 [0.062, 0.719] mg/100g; Protein = 18 [15, 21] %; Omega3 = 0.301 [0.127, 0.682] g/100g; Selenium = 13.3 [4.4, 37.3] μg/100g; VitaminA = 12.8 [4.0, 41.2] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.335 [0.164, 0.605] mg/100g (wet weight);
