Etymology: Aseraggodes: Greek, aggos, -eos, -ous = vessel, uterus, carapace of a crab + Greek, aseros, -a, -on = to remove the appetite (Ref. 45335);  lenisquamis: Name from the Latin words 'lenis' for soft or smooth and 'squamma' fro scale, referring to the distinctive scale structure; cteni nearly covered by soft epidermal tissue, only the tips exposed at the scale margin..

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal soft rays (total): 62-70; Anal soft rays: 46 - 52; Vertebrae: 36 - 38. Diagnosis: Dorsal rays 62-70; anal rays 46-52; dorsal and anal rays branched. Lateral-line scales 62-68. including 8-9 anterior to a vertical at upper end of gill opening. Vertebrae 36-38; dorsal pterygiophores anterior to fourth neural spine 8-9. Body depth 2.4-2.65 in SL; head short, its length (HL) 4.75-5.05 in SL; eye diameter 4.6-5.7 in HL; upper eye overlapping about anterior one-third to one-half of lower eye; interorbital space variable in width; vertical distance separating eyes 7.3-13.7 in HL. Caudal peduncle absent. Lappet-like cirri on ventral edge of head, but not on front of snout; numerous cirri on opercular edge of gill opening on both sides; dense cirri over much of ventral part of head; exposed surface of scales overlaid with soft tissue; only tips of cirri visible at scale margins, capped with soft tissue; lateral-line scales with fleshy cirri, often one above and one below pore (cirri better developed on ocular than blind side); scattered other scales with a slender fleshy cirrus, often one from each corner of scale; membranous ridges of both sides of dorsal and anal rays with a conspicuous fringe of cirri. Some of which are bifid. Lateral line aligned with upper eye. Longest dorsal ray 1.65-1.8 in HL. Caudal fin rounded, its length 4.6-5.05 in SL; pelvic fins short, 1.8-2.2 in HL, the tip of longest ray reaching base of second anal ray. Ocular side light brown, with scattered small dark brown blotches; rays of fins with small dark brown spots (Ref. 57560).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 17.8 - 23.3, mean 18.8 °C (based on 40 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00977 (0.00473 - 0.02021), b=3.07 (2.90 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.6   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
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).
