Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

Vertebre: 115 - 117. This species is distinguished from all species of the S. megalops group by possessing pectoral fins with free rear tips rounded (vs. pointed); snout blunt and elongate (vs. rounded and short); dermal denticles tricuspid and rhomboid (vs. unicuspid and lanceolate); differs from S. mitsukurii by having narrower interorbital space, 8.2%, 7.9%-8.3% TL (vs. 9.3%, 9.1%-9.8% TL), shorter lower caudal fin lobe with preventral caudal margin 11.4%, 10.9%-11.3% TL (vs. 12.1%, 11.5%-12.4% TL); differs from S. blainvillei (from the Mediterranean Sea) by having lower dorsal fins with first dorsal-fin height 6.9%, 7.0%-7.1% TL (vs. 8.2%, 7.3%-8.7% TL), with second dorsal-fin height 5.3%, 4.2%-4.4% TL (vs. 7.2%, 6.6%-7.5% TL), a shorter upper labial furrow, its length 2.3%, 2.2% TL (vs. 2.5%, 2.4%-2.7% TL); differs from S. lobularis by having its caudal fin somewhat slender (vs. upper caudal lobe rectangular), second dorsal-fin spine not reaching dorsal-fin apex (vs. reaching dorsal-fin apex), shorter pectoral-fin inner margin with its length 8.1%, 8.4%-8.9% TL (vs. 10.5%, 9.2%-11.0% TL), greater clasper outer length of 5.0%, 4.6%-5.1% TL (vs. 4.3% TL) (Ref. 109601).

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=0.00933 (0.00346 - 0.02519), b=3.02 (2.79 - 3.25), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  4.3   ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 4.5 - 14 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Moderate to high vulnerability (48 of 100).
