Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 2; Dorsal soft rays (total): 27; Anal soft rays: 18. This species is distinguished from other species of the 'P. mentella' group by the following set of characters: short and tiny mental barbel, light-brownish dorsally, reaching anterior edge of orbit over snout with mouth closed, its length about 9% SL; a very short poorly developed ovaloid terminal expansion composed of bicolored, white and brownish, scale-like and mostly bluntly palmate processes, the length is less than 1/3 of barbel length; lower jaw moderately protruding with weakly visible anterior teeth on symphysis and hidden dorsum of tongue when mouth is closed; the second dorsal fin is high in male (height about 25% SL), without any prominent anterior elevated lobe, with longest rays (1st to 7th) very soft, sinuous distally and branched from about mid-length, this fin is almost entirely black in coloration with bluish insertions in anterior one third and dark basally with light upper margin posteriorly; dorsal surface of head and area anterior to first dorsal fin is covered by dark-brown irregular spots, vermiculations and markings; belly, breast and lower surface of head brown or brownish in general and no distinct dark spots; light mandibular oral valve; pectoral fin vertically dark-striped in its anterior part and uniformly lightish in posterior part (Ref. 93381).

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=0.00513 (0.00247 - 0.01065), b=3.13 (2.95 - 3.31), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.4   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low to moderate vulnerability (26 of 100).
