Tamaño / Peso / Age
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 29.5 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 9321)
Occur in shallow waters, most commonly in areas of mangrove development and shallow embayments. Often seen scraping algae from lava rocks or browsing on filamentous algae (Ref. 28023). Oviparous, eggs are pelagic and non-adhesive (Ref. 205). More data needed. Probably caught incidentally with other mullets.
