Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 2; Dorsal soft rays (total): 6-7; Anal soft rays: 50 - 59; Vertebrae: 52 - 54. Diagnosed from other species of the genus by the combination of the following characters: gill rakers on the first gill arch 15-19; branched pectoral-fin rays 15-17; accessory premaxillary tooth patch extending posteriorly nearly to the terminus of the gape; branched anal-fin rays 46-54; posterior limit of the gape located under orbit; fleshy flap along the anterior margin of the posterior naris extending medial of the medial margin of the naris by a distance equal to, or greater than, the transverse dimension of the posterior naris; length of the pectoral-fin spine 16.8-18% SL; lateral margin of the pectoral spine rough; snout in lateral view somewhat rounded; and dorsal view slightly trilobed (Ref. 75095).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5078 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00589 (0.00263 - 0.01321), b=3.02 (2.83 - 3.21), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.4 ±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 (18 of 100).
