Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 10 - 11; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 14 - 16; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 11 - 13. Variable body coloration, dark red to silvery, paler ventrally with lateral line darker; often yellowish snout and eyes. Caudal fin tips distinctly black or reddish black (Ref. 48636). 4-5 scales on cheek; 21-29 predorsal scales; scaled dorsal and anal fins. Upper peduncular scale rows usually 11 (10-12); lower peduncular scale rows usually 15 (13-17). ventrolateral surface of basioccipital with a broad process for attachment of Baudelot's ligament. Post maxillary with 2 processes; posterior end of maxilla tapered (Ref. 1723). Head length 3.0-3.5 in SL; body depth 3.6-4.8 in SL (Ref. 90102).

Ranges widely around coral reefs (Ref. 58652), sometimes forming schools with other Pterocaesio species. Feeds on zooplankton in midwater aggregations. Oviparous, with numerous, small pelagic eggs (Ref. 402). Also caught mostly by drive-in nets. Important tuna baitfish.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 25.9 - 28.4, mean 27.5 °C (based on 310 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5002 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00549 - 0.01823), b=3.10 (2.94 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.4 ±0.45 se; based on food items.

Generation time: 1.0 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (K=1.05).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (14 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 86.4 [57.2, 142.7] mg/100g; Iron = 0.958 [0.616, 1.459] mg/100g; Protein = 18.9 [17.9, 19.9] %; Omega3 = 0.165 [0.107, 0.249] g/100g; Selenium = 39.5 [23.6, 70.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 94.5 [38.9, 238.3] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.37 [0.97, 1.86] mg/100g (wet weight);
