Size / Weight / Age

Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 19.0 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 6733)

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Can be diagnosed by having snout depth 6-8 times in its length and snout length more than half of head length (Ref. 59043).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Found mostly amongst detritus or vegetation over shallow muddy bottom (Ref. 6733). Ovoviviparous (Ref. 205). The male carries the eggs in a brood pouch which is found under the tail (Ref. 205).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00028 (0.00012 - 0.00065), b=3.21 (3.03 - 3.39), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.4   ±0.45 se; based on food items.
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).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 52.5 [12.1, 189.1] mg/100g; Iron = 0.565 [0.233, 1.586] mg/100g; Protein = 3.01 [0.00, 6.74] %; Omega3 = 0.53 [0.22, 1.27] g/100g; Selenium = 8.08 [1.48, 24.49] μg/100g; VitaminA = 21.5 [7.6, 64.9] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.786 [0.382, 1.516] mg/100g (wet weight);
