Subtropical, preferred ?

Distribution

Indo-West Pacific: India to China and off Cambodia (Ref. 9912). Photo records from Komodo, Indonesia (Seret, pers.comm. 01/15). Conservation status maybe of concern in Northwest Pacific because of its inshore benthic habitat, low abudance, and the presence of intensive demersal fisheries (Ref. 47737).

Short description

Preorbital length about equal to preoral length (and much greater than prenasal length), and dark brown spots that are usually greater than eye diameter over a brown background (Ref. 49866).

Found in continental waters, both inshore and offshore (Ref. 9912). Biology little known (Ref. 9912).

IUCN Red List Status (Ref. 115185)

Estimates of some properties based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82805)
PD₅₀ = 0.5000 many relatives (e.g. carps) 0.5 - 2.0 few relatives (e.g. lungfishes)

Trophic Level (Ref. 69278)
3.2 ±0.3 se; Based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilience (Ref. 69278)
Low, minimum population doubling time 4.5 - 14 years (Assuming fecundity<100)

Vulnerability (Ref. 59153)
Low vulnerability (18 of 100)
