Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 12 - 13; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 15 - 17; Vertebre: 31 - 33. Dorsal fin XII or XIII (rarely XIII), 13-15, deeply incised between spinous and segmented-ray areas. Anal fin II,15-17. Pectoral fin 12-14 (rarely 12 or 14). Segmented caudal-fin rays 13. Vertebrae 10 + 21-23. Dentary incisor teeth which includes anterior canines very similar in appearance from incisors, 46-54 in males and 48 to 56 in females, averaging more in females than males; posterior canines 0 or 1 (usually 1). Lateral line without vertical pairs of pores, extending posteriorly to point between vertical from interspace between 9th and 10th spines and vertical from base of 11th dorsal-fin spine (rarely anterior to base of 10th spine). With cirrus on posterior rim of anterior nostril; absent on anterior rim. Posterior portion of body with sparse peppering of fine, dark spots (Ref. 5296).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: oval.

Adults feed mainly on a diet of coral polyps and mucous (Ref. 94105). Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturità | Riproduzione | Deposizione | Uova | Fecundity | Larve

Oviparous, distinct pairing (Ref. 205).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 24.7 - 28.4, mean 26.7 °C (based on 408 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00776 (0.00356 - 0.01695), b=3.00 (2.81 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 2.0 ±0.00 se; based on food items.

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 235 [112, 443] mg/100g; Iron = 1.08 [0.60, 1.97] mg/100g; Protein = 17.7 [16.5, 18.9] %; Omega3 = 0.0909 [, ] g/100g; Selenium = 26.5 [11.5, 63.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 115 [27, 483] μg/100g; Zinc = 3.32 [2.11, 4.99] mg/100g (wet weight);
