Ökologie
seewasser riff-verbunden; standorttreu; tiefenbereich 2 - 200 m (Ref. 5292), usually 40 - 80 m (Ref. 4742). Subtropical; 68°N - 12°N, 32°W - 34°E
Eastern Atlantic: Norway south to Senegal, Azores and Madeira. Also in the Mediterranean.
Length at first maturity / Size / Gewicht / Alter
Maturity: Lm 16.0  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 40.0 cm SL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 3397); 30.0 cm TL (female); common length : 30.0 cm SL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 4742); max. veröff. Alter: 20 Jahre (Ref. 35388)
Adults are found in the algal zone of rocky shores (Ref. 35388). Usually solitary or in pairs with young. Females lay about 1,000 eggs in a nest of algae; the nest is guarded by the male (Ref. 35388). Feed mainly on crustaceans but also fishes and mollusks (Ref. 4742) and worms (Ref. 35388). Oviparous (Ref. 205).
Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Males build dish shaped nests and guard the eggs (Ref. 205). Sex reversal is completed in 7 months (Ref. 34185, 34259).
