Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal soft rays (total): 32-33; Anal soft rays: 13 - 14. This species is distinguished from its congeners by the following set of characters: D 32-33; A 13-14; pectoral rays usually 11, most of the middle rays are branched; total caudal-fin ray elements 32; dorsal-fin origin slightly behind the pelvic-fin origin, its predorsal length 37.3-38.0% SL; pelvic fins are long and filamentous, 37.5-40.9% SL, the first and seventh rays unbranched; colour in life is translucent pinkish with blue-margined, yellow mid-lateral stripe, about seven, there are pupil-sized red spots from opercle to caudal-fin base, a broad pinkish saddles across dorsum of head and back, a prominent black marking encompassing all or distal portion of first three dorsal-fin membranes (Ref. 118515).

Found on sandy bottoms, usually in areas of cool upwelling (Ref. 118515).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.6250 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.3 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
