Short description Morfología | Morfometría

Espinas dorsales (total): 9 - 16; Radios blandos dorsales (total): 18-20; Espinas anales 1; Radios blandos anales: 28 - 29. Caudal moderately forked (Ref. 6885). Light brown on dorsal surface, silvery ventrally, dark along midside, mid-dorsal line in irregular patches, and lateral line; spinous dorsal with dark streaks paralleling free edge; upper parts of pectorals and caudal with darkened edges, and vague dark blotches on rayed dorsal; anal, pelvic fins, and lower parts of pectorals light (Ref. 6885).

Biología     Glosario (por ej. epibenthic)

Adults are found in deeper waters whereas larvae and juveniles occupy shallow, nearshore habitats (Ref. 57910). Usually buried in muddy or sandy bottoms with mouth protruding (Ref. 2850). Eggs are laid in a gelatinous mass that is attached to rocks (Ref. 2850). Some have been caught by hand in shallow water (Ref. 2850).

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 1 - 7.6, mean 4.1 °C (based on 434 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 1.2500   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278):  4.0   ±0.3 se; based on diet studies.
Resiliencia (Ref. 120179):  Medio, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo de 1.4-4.4 años (Fec = 1,000).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (21 of 100).
