Length at first maturity / Size / Weight / Age

Maturity: L m 10.3   range ? - ? cm
Max length : 14.0 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 3810 ); common length : 13.0 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 3810 )

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 10; Dorsal soft rays (total): 9; Anal spines : 3; Anal soft rays : 7. Lower edge of eye lies below a line drawn from tip of snout to upper base of pectoral fin. Lower edge of suborbital very slightly emarginate; the posterior edge more or less straight. Dorsal fin origin about 4-7 scale rows from an imaginary line projected upwards from posterior edge of suborbital to dorsal profile. Axillary scale present. Color: Oblique golden yellow stripe from beneath eye to middle of maxilla. Upper body pinkish, silvery white below. This species closely resembles N. marginatus , but lacks the filamentous extension to the upper lobe of the caudal fin; the posterior margin of the suborbital is more or less straight, rather than evenly curved; and the upper stripe on the body is not divided anteriorly.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 23.7 - 28.3, mean 27.3 °C (based on 137 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01288 (0.01094 - 0.01517), b=2.96 (2.93 - 2.99), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.7   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (K=0.8; tm=0.7; Fec=1,213). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100). Price category (Ref. 80766 ):   High .
