Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Body compressed and deep (depth contained 2.0 to 2.1 times in standard length); mouth small and terminal with thick, fleshy lips; dorsal fin with 12 spines and 15 to 16 soft rays (XII, 15-16); pectoral fins slightly longer than head, reaching origin of anal fin; lateral line with 50 to 54 scales; scale series above lateral line parallel to it; body entirely golden gray with an indistinct dark stripe from nape to base of pectoral fins; flanks indistinctly striated; pelvic fins almost black (Ref. 55763).

Benthic over hard, rock and rubble bottoms (Ref. 9114). Marketed fresh (Ref. 9114).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 23.4 - 29.1, mean 27.9 °C (based on 209 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82805): PD₅₀ = 0.5039 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01738 (0.00818 - 0.03692), b=3.02 (2.84 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Subfamily-BS (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.4 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilience (Ref. 120179): Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (20 of 100) .

Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649): (0 of 100) .

Price category (Ref. 80766): Medium.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 157 [84, 292] mg/100g ; Iron = 0.814 [0.433, 1.607] mg/100g ; Protein = 18.5 [16.5, 20.5] % ; Omega3 = 0.232 [0.110, 0.439] g/100g ; Selenium = 54.5 [28.2, 110.0] μg/100g ; VitaminA = 17.8 [7.0, 48.9] μg/100g ; Zinc = 0.979 [0.570, 1.521] mg/100g (wet weight);
