Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 12; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 14 - 16; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 12 - 14. Usually with 16 dorsal spines and 12 gill rakers on the lower limb of the first arch (Ref. 7247).

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Adults inhabit coral and rocky inshore reefs (Ref. 9334). Omnivorous (Ref. 9334). 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).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturities | Riproduzione | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | Larve

Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Males guard and aerate the eggs (Ref. 205). Nests are built in holes under rocks, however, the cavity is first sandblasted thoroughly (Ref. 26281). Eggs are sometimes attached to vertical rock surface in captive fish (Ref. 39475).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 22.3 - 28.7, mean 25.6 °C (based on 147 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01950 (0.00893 - 0.04257), b=2.99 (2.81 - 3.17), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 4.5 - 14 anni (tmax=19).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 94.6 [47.6, 151.1] mg/100g; Iron = 0.699 [0.429, 1.157] mg/100g; Protein = 18.2 [17.0, 19.3] %; Omega3 = 0.0995 [, ] g/100g; Selenium = 21.4 [11.9, 40.5] μg/100g; VitaminA = 85.8 [23.0, 299.0] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.73 [1.18, 2.53] mg/100g (wet weight);
