Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 0; Anal spines : 0; Anal soft rays : 70 - 85. Belly with a keel of scutes, but interrupted below pectoral fin base; scutes 7 or 8, then a gap, followed by 10 to 13, the outer edges of scutes smooth and not serrated. Upper jaw broad at midpoint, tapering posteriorly, the tip reaching or surpassing gill opening; no hypo-maxilla.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 24.9 - 27.8, mean 27.3 °C (based on 84 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.6250   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00279 - 0.00543), b=3.04 (2.95 - 3.13), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.5   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives Generation time: 3.1 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (K=0.35). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (12 of 100). Price category (Ref. 80766 ):   Low . Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 195 [123, 416] mg/100g; Iron = 1.5 [0.9, 2.5] mg/100g; Protein = 18.5 [17.0, 19.9] %; Omega3 = 0.259 [0.128, 0.505] g/100g; Selenium = 34 [16, 75] μg/100g; VitaminA = 48 [18, 117] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.77 [1.23, 2.44] mg/100g (wet weight);
