Short description Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri

Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 10; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 12; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 3; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 6. Distinguished from C. aprinus by the bright yellow coloration when viewed underwater (Ref. 48636).

Biologi     Ordlista (t.ex. epibenthic)

Occurs on rocky cliffs in deep water (Ref. 9710). Also inhabits muddy substrates in protected bays where wave action has no influence (Ref. 48636). Solitary (Ref 90102).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturities | Reproduktion | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | Larver

Bi-directional sex change has been confirmed for this species (Ref. 103751). Sexual pattern seem to be intermediate between simultaneous and sequential hermaphroditism: individuals, at least under conditions of captivity, have the capacity to change sex in either direction, from functional male to functional female, or vice versa (Ref. 31569).
