Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 11; Dorsal soft rays (total): 10-11; Anal spines: 3; Anal soft rays: 10; Vertebrae: 24. Crenidens indicus differs from Crenidens crenidens by the following characters: scale rows between the 10th dorsal-spine base and lateral line (41/2 vs. 51/2-61/2 in C. crenidens); gill rakers in the lower arch (10-12 vs. 9-10 in C. crenidens); dark spot located dorsally in the pectoral-fin axil (present vs. none in C. crenidens); body relatively deeper body 2.13-2.34 in SL vs. slender body (2.42-2.93 in SL for C. crenidens) (Ref. 94712).

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=0.02089 (0.00974 - 0.04480), b=2.97 (2.80 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.4   ±0.2 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (18 of 100).
