Etymology: Serrivomer: Latin, serran, serranus, saw + Latin, vomer = ploughshare; in fishes = bone forming the front part of the roof of the mouth (1823) (Ref. 45335); sector: sector apparently alludes to the manner in which the platelike vomer divides the roof of the mouth into equal parts (Ref. 4525).

Estimates based on models
|
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804) |
PD50 = 0.5029 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. |
| Bayesian length-weight | a=0.00102 (0.00046 - 0.00225), b=3.06 (2.88 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245). |
|
Trophic level (Ref. 69278) |
3.8 ±0.54 se; based on food items. |
| Generation time | 3.7 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies. |
|
Resilience (Ref. 120179) |
Low, minimum population doubling time 4.5 - 14 years (Assuming tmax>10). |
|
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153) |
Moderate vulnerability (44 of 100). 🛈 |
