Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 12 - 13; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 15 - 17; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 12 - 13. Body color is medium brown, sometimes with slight diffusion of yellow. The edges of scales are narrowly bordered with dusky brown. The suborbital is lavender or blue and the lips are pale gray. The pectoral fins are translucent with brownish rays and yellow suffusion on posterior edge. A prominent black spot bordered with light blue is on the outer part of anterior dorsal spines running from base of 1st spine to distal tip of 5th or 6th spine.
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: oval.

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Adults usually inhabit rocky reefs (Ref. 7247). 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).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Fonte Biblio. 123201): 18.3 - 25.2, mean 21.4 °C (based on 155 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Fonte Biblio. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01259 (0.00497 - 0.03190), b=3.04 (2.82 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Fonte Biblio. 69278):  2.0   ±0.00 se; based on food items.
Resilienza (Fonte Biblio. 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). 🛈
