Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

A set of 4 long spines with their bases near dorsal- and anal-fin bases and their pointed ends extending over caudal peduncle. Two very long spines (longer than rays of pectoral fins) in pectoral-fin axil (Ref 9680).

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Found on soft bottoms to at least 30 m (Ref. 9680). Presumably feeds on hard-shelled invertebrates (Ref. 9680). Frequently trawled but not marketed (Ref. 9680).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 23.2 - 28.2, mean 26.9 °C (based on 295 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 1.0000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.04786 (0.01967 - 0.11644), b=2.82 (2.61 - 3.03), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.5   ±0.37 se; based on food items.
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (20 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 43.5 [18.8, 106.8] mg/100g; Iron = 0.622 [0.320, 1.402] mg/100g; Protein = 18.2 [16.1, 20.4] %; Omega3 = 0.127 [0.066, 0.242] g/100g; Selenium = 44.6 [22.5, 93.3] μg/100g; VitaminA = 51.9 [15.0, 190.5] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.08 [0.73, 1.60] mg/100g (wet weight);
