Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 15.0 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 35388); 10.6 cm SL (female); common length : 10.5 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 4698)

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Gill membranes joined to each other under the throat, lateral line scales without bony knobs. Upper spine of the front gill cover curved upwards (Ref. 35388).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Occur on sandy or muddy bottoms (Ref. 4698). Benthic (Ref. 58426). Feed on polychaetes, small mollusks and very rarely small crustaceans (Ref. 4698). Lives at temperatures of -1.7-4°C. Females lay 50-350 eggs with a diameter of 4mm in late summer (Ref. 35388).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 0.4 - 7.4, mean 3 °C (based on 1117 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00676 (0.00300 - 0.01523), b=3.17 (2.98 - 3.36), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.6   ±0.38 se; based on food items.
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  Low, minimum population doubling time 4.5 - 14 years (Fec=50).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 82.3 [31.6, 185.9] mg/100g; Iron = 0.378 [0.173, 0.871] mg/100g; Protein = 17.1 [14.9, 19.3] %; Omega3 = 0.65 [0.28, 1.57] g/100g; Selenium = 11 [3, 36] μg/100g; VitaminA = 31.4 [8.1, 110.6] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.765 [0.486, 1.338] mg/100g (wet weight);
