Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Body moderately slender and compressed; head large and pointed; teeth caniniform, enlarged, and somewhat crooked, two anterior pairs in each jaw; dorsal fin continuous, with 11 spines; lateral line slightly arched, with 28 scales; body reddish pink; belly paler; a black spot on the flank above posterior edge of pectoral fin; anal fin white (Ref. 55763).
Lives over sandy bottoms with gravel and isolated reefs. Often caught in the open sea as a by-catch of trawlers fishing for prawns and shrimps. Each individual functions first as a female but later changes to a male (Ref. 47122).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 15 - 22.3, mean 17.2 °C (based on 31 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.

50 = 0.5625 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00955 (0.00456 - 0.02002), b=3.06 (2.89 - 3.23), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
