Size / Weight / Age

Maturity: L m   ?   range ? - ? cm
Max length : 10.0 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 7251 )

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 0; Dorsal soft rays (total): 4-6; Anal spines : 0. This species of the H. aculeatus complex is distinguished by having 2 narrow black bands across pectoral fin; with well-developed outer sphenotic tubercle and strongly reduced inner sphenotic tubercle; tubercles relatively small but sharp; tubercles almost always absent dorsal to orbit; relatively fine reticulate pigmentation pattern on dorsal surface (i.e. densely arranged network of melanophores); relatively small with adult body size usually attaining <7.0 cm SL (Ref. 85070 ).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Inhabits bare sandy bottom where, during the day, it rests partly covered by a thin layer of sand (Ref. 5521 ).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 21.7 - 27.6, mean 24.9 °C (based on 548 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5625   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02291 (0.00925 - 0.05675), b=2.94 (2.72 - 3.16), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.3   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100). Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 49 [21, 146] mg/100g; Iron = 0.685 [0.342, 1.373] mg/100g; Protein = 19.2 [16.6, 22.4] %; Omega3 = 0.254 [0.094, 0.689] g/100g; Selenium = 19.5 [7.3, 49.1] μg/100g; VitaminA = 75.9 [16.2, 361.8] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.902 [0.527, 1.482] mg/100g (wet weight);
