Max length : 30.0 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 9563 )

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal soft rays (total): 76-86; Anal soft rays : 51 - 56. Body deep (55-60% SL). Snout extended into a hook-like process projecting downwards in front of small, oblique mouth. Scales ctenoid, very small, rather firmly attached on both sides. Pectoral fin rays on right side 11-13, left 9-12. Pelvic fin rays on right side 7, left 4. Caudal fin rays 14 (Ref. 33839 ).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Occurs in sandy regions of bays and offshore areas. Flesh of very high quality but individuals taken are not often sufficiently large to make preparation worthwhile (Ref. 33839 ).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 15 - 20.4, mean 17.7 °C (based on 206 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5312   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01820 (0.00786 - 0.04213), b=2.97 (2.76 - 3.18), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.1   ±0.26 se; based on food items. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (20 of 100). Price category (Ref. 80766 ):   Medium .
