Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 13; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 10 - 11; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 10 - 11.
Adults inhabit seaward reef slopes (Ref. 9710), with caves and large crevices. Congregated in groups in caves when not feeding on plankton away from the reefs. Often see well away from shelter and in spread-out schools (Ref. 48636). Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Eggs are demersal and adhere to the substrate (Ref. 205). Males guard and aerate the eggs (Ref. 205). Diurnal species (Ref. 113699).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 28.3 - 29.2, mean 28.8 °C (based on 624 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01778 (0.00796 - 0.03971), b=2.99 (2.81 - 3.17), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.4 ±0.45 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 = 86 [43, 134] mg/100g; Iron = 0.738 [0.434, 1.217] mg/100g; Protein = 18.4 [17.2, 19.5] %; Omega3 = 0.11 [0.06, 0.18] g/100g; Selenium = 22 [11, 43] μg/100g; VitaminA = 137 [40, 443] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.29 [0.85, 1.87] mg/100g (wet weight);
