Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 9; Dorsal soft rays (total): 24 - 26; Anal spines: 3; Anal soft rays: 21 - 23.

Adults occur in inshore waters of the continental shelf (Ref. 7300). They form large demersal schools over soft bottom habitats at depths shallower than 50 m. Sometimes they ascend into freshwater reaches like the freshwater tidal zone in the Mekong delta (Ref. 12693). Ostracods, gastropods and euphausiids are common prey but small fish are also taken.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 25.1 - 29.3, mean 28.6 (based on 2984 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 1.0000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01318 (0.01178 - 0.01475), b=2.96 (2.93 - 2.99), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.8 ±0.2 se; based on diet studies.

Resilience (Ref. 120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (K=0.5-1.3).

Prior r = 0.98, 95% CL = 0.65 - 1.47, Based on 2 data-limited stock assessments.

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (14 of 100).

Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649): High vulnerability (56 of 100).
