Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 0; Anal spines: 0. Head large; eyes large; snout short and bluntly pointed. Body elongated, tapering abruptly from the first dorsal-fin base. Light organ rather short, extending in front of the anus within the body wall as a flattened, elongate diverticulum falling well short of the pelvic fin bases. Scales rather large and deciduous. Color is brownish to swarthy; the trunk bluish to violet; the fins dusky to blackish. A prominent blackish area behind the pectoral fin bases. The mouth and gill cavities pale.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 7 - 10.5, mean 9.5 °C (based on 12 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00251 (0.00128 - 0.00492), b=3.19 (3.03 - 3.35), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.4   ±0.49 se; based on food items.
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  Low, minimum population doubling time 4.5 - 14 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low to moderate vulnerability (29 of 100).
