Size / Weight / Age

Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 15.0 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 33616)

Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 10; Dorsal soft rays (total): 10; Anal spines: 3; Anal soft rays: 7. This species is distinguished from its congeners by the following set of characters: lower jaw with a row of conical teeth posterior to a canine tooth near symphysis; presence of basioccipital fossa; proximal-middle radial of first anal-fin pterygiophore with a narrow and elongate concavity on anterior surface; pectoral-fin rays 14; first gill arch with gill rakers on lower arm 20-23; lateral-line scales 44-51; body depth 22.2-28.1% SL; scales cycloid and very weakly ctenoid (Ref. 123567).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

A temperate species occurring in a wide range of habitats and depths from estuaries (< 40 m) to the continental slope (ca. 100-600 m), but most common in outer shelf and upper slope waters (Ref. 9563, 33616). Minimum depth reported taken from Ref. 57178.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 10.3 - 19, mean 14.1 °C (based on 52 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 1.0000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01148 (0.00463 - 0.02844), b=3.03 (2.81 - 3.25), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.8   ±0.60 se; based on food items.
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
