Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 9; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 21-24; Taggstrålar i analfenan 3; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 17 - 21.

A coastal and oceanic species, associated with reefs (Ref. 9283, 58302). Juveniles occur seasonally in shallow sandy inshore waters (Ref. 9710). Found in rivers (Ref. 12792). Pelagic (Ref. 58302). Occasionally in schools. Feeds mainly on other fishes (Ref. 9283), also crustaceans (Ref. 9710). Often toxic when it reaches a length of more than 50 cm (Ref. 4795). Mainly marketed fresh, but also dried or salted (Ref. 9283). Most common trevally in coral reefs (Ref. 90102).

Estimates of some properties based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82805): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01995 (0.01637 - 0.02431), b=2.96 (2.93 - 2.99), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 4.5 ±0.8 se; Based on diet studies.

Resiliens (Ref. 69278): Mellan, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid 1,4-4,4 år (K=0.23; tm=2; Fec=49,700).

Prior r = 0.55, 2 SD range = 0.35 - 0.86, log(r) = -0.6, SD log(r) = 0.22, Based on: 2 K, 1 tgen, 2 Fec records

Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (50 of 100) .

Price category (Ref. 80766): High.
