Length at first maturity / Size / Peso / Age
Maturity: Lm 27.3, range 21 - 32 cm
Max length : 49.0 cm TL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 56370); common length : 33.5 cm TL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 4883); peso massimo pubblicato: 1.7 kg (Ref. 56527); Età massima riportata: 34 anni (Ref. 55701)
Spine dorsali (totale): 0; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 61-69; Spine anali 0; Raggi anali molli: 48 - 58; Vertebre: 39 - 40. Dorsal origin above posterior part of eye. Caudal rounded at edges. Pectorals bluntly pointed.
Adults feed on hydroids, worms, mollusks, and brittle stars (Ref. 6885). Marketed frozen and eaten fried, microwaved and baked (Ref. 9988).
Each individual spawns from 8 to 11 batches (Ref. 39301). Spawning occurs primarily in shallow water but for large females spawning may take place in waters to a depth of around 50 m (Ref. 119537). Undergoes spawning and feeding migration (Ref. 119537).
