Max length : 16.6 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 128299)

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 0; Anal spines: 0; Anal soft rays: 31 - 32. Belly with 16 to 18 + 10 or 11 = 26 to 29 keeled scutes from isthmus to anus. Maxilla moderately short, tip pointed and reaching just to edge of gill cover; first supra-maxilla absent. Serrae on lower gill rakers not clumped. Tip of pelvic fin falling short of vertical from dorsal origin. A dark `saddle' on nape, extending to area behind upper part of gill opening.

An estuarine species, but there is no indication if this signifies a marine or riverine fish.

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00407 (0.00201 - 0.00827), b=3.07 (2.90 - 3.24), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.4 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilience (Ref. 120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Medium.
