Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 0; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 72 - 92; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 45 - 70; Vertebre: 41 - 44. Dorsal origin above middle of upper eye. Pectorals inclined to be pointed.
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep.
Adults inhabit sand and mud bottoms (Ref. 4925). Young occur in intertidal areas. Feed on small crustaceans, marine worms, brittle stars and small mollusks (Ref. 6885). Spawning adults make extensive migrations (Ref. 6885).
