Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal soft rays (total): 8-10; Anal soft rays: 20 - 22. Distinguished from all other members of the family by the combination of the following characters: jaws subequal, 20-22 anal fin rays, eye diameter about equal to snout length, 33-35% HL, 58-65 scales in lateral row, 8-10 branched dorsal rays (Ref. 26747).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

The eggs are carried between the pelvic fins with each egg attached to the body by 10-20 filaments (Ref. 7050).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae

Carries eggs in clusters or balls (Ref. 7471). Eggs are carried, protected in a body cavity by the pelvics, until hatching (Ref. 43281).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5625   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.6   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
