Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics
This species is distinguished from its congeners occurring in the Black Sea basin (O. kosswigi, O. banarescui, O. samanticus, O. angorae) by the following characters: males with a suborbital groove; with an axillary lobe at the pelvic-fin base; no dorsal adipose crest on the caudal peduncle; with a slightly-forked caudal fin; and with 7-15 dark grey dorsal saddles, usually with 9-15 irregularly-shaped dark-grey bars on the flank posterior to the dorsal-fin origin or, rarely having a mottled pattern or 4-6 irregularly shaped dark-grey bars on the flank posterior to the dorsal-fin origin (Ref. 120213).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = No PD50 data [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00741 (0.00354 - 0.01554), b=3.02 (2.85 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref.

Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 2.8 ±0.3 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.
