Short description पहचान कुंजी | आकृति विज्ञान | मौरफोमैटरिक्स

Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep; Cross section: compressed.

A diurnal feeder or substrate feeder. Primary food item are sponges supplemented by tunicates, algae, bryozoans, hydroids and eggs. Adults often range widely over the reef in pairs or loose aggregations while juveniles are territorial and solitary. Oviparous (Ref. 240), monogamous (Ref. 52884). Breeding occurs from midsummer to early fall and juveniles are most abundant from August through November.

Protogyny has been proposed for this species awaiting confirmation (Ref. 103751). Monogamous mating is observed as both facultative and social (Ref. 52884).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 20.4 - 29.1, mean 25.9 °C (based on 260 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5001 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.03236 (0.01318 - 0.07944), b=2.88 (2.70 - 3.06), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.32 se; based on food items.

लौटाव (Ref. 120179): निम्न, न्यूनतम जनसंख्या दुगनी होने का समय 4.5 - 14 वर्ष। (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (36 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): High.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 39.6 [20.1, 67.0] mg/100g; Iron = 0.495 [0.290, 0.810] mg/100g; Protein = 18.5 [17.3, 19.7] %; Omega3 = 0.0817 [, ] g/100g; Selenium = 26.5 [13.4, 50.8] μg/100g; VitaminA = 61.8 [15.8, 218.7] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.21 [0.84, 1.75] mg/100g (wet weight);
