Teleostei (teleosts) > Perciformes/Uranoscopoidei (Sand dwellers) > Pinguipedidae (Sandperches)
Etymology: Simipercis: Name from Latin 'similis', for similar or like, referring to the pinguipedid genus Percis Bloch and Schneider, 1801 (the latter being preoccupied by the agonid genus Percis Scopoli, 1777); trispinosa: Name from Latin 'tres' for three, and 'spina' for thorn or spine, referring to the 3 dorsal-fin spines, a character state not found in any other species of Pinguipedidae.

Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Vertebrae: 30 - 31. This species is distinguished in having 3 dorsal spines; a low naked fleshy nuchal crest ; dorsal angle of opercular bone broad, not forming a distinct exposed, pointed spine. It also has the following features: vomer and palatines edentate; subopercle and preopercle entire; 10 abdominal and 20-21 caudal vertebrae; scales including those on head and pelvic region large and ctenoid; interorbital with a single row of large scales, extending to, or just beyond anterior margin of eye; suborbital scales reaching a vertical between anterior margin of pupil and anterior margin of eye; and, head and body moderately compressed (body width 1.3- 1.55 in depth in adults) (Ref. 59348).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 20.9 - 24.3, mean 22.8 °C (based on 10 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 1.0000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00631 (0.00294 - 0.01353), b=3.07 (2.89 - 3.25), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.5   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
