Description synthétique Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie

Épines dorsales (Total) : 4 - 5; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 23 - 25; Épines anales: 3; Rayons mous anaux: 19 - 21. Dark brown (body in life with fine pale blue-green longitudinal lines following scale rows, becoming dots anteriorly on body and on head) (Ref 9808). Small juveniles have yellowish bars and more prominent yellow specks than adults.
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep.

Occurs in coral-rich areas of lagoon and seaward reefs. Graze on algae, usually in groups of 20 individuals (Ref. 5503, 48637). Adults usually in small groups and sometimes schooling. Juveniles solitary and usually among corals (Ref. 48637). Its numerous, small pharyngeal teeth may have evolved in response to a shift in diet from macroalgae to filamentous algae (Ref. 33204). Form resident spawning aggregations (Ref. 27825). Monogamous (Ref. 52884). Group and pair spawning have been observed. The flesh is never poisonous (Ref. 4795). Minimum depth reported taken from Ref. 128797.

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturité | Reproduction | Frai | Œufs | Fécondité | Larves

Form resident spawning aggregations (Ref. 27825). Monogamous mating is observed as both facultative and social (Ref. 52884).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 24.6 - 28.9, mean 27.6 °C (based on 1646 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5078 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02512 (0.02098 - 0.03007), b=2.97 (2.92 - 3.02), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 2.0 ±0.00 se; based on food items.

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Très faible, temps minimum de doublement de population supérieur à 14 ans (K=0.425; tmax=33).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (39 of 100).

Catégorie de prix (Ref. 80766): Medium.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 25 [11, 80] mg/100g; Iron = 0.636 [0.219, 1.541] mg/100g; Protein = 17.8 [16.4, 19.2] %; Omega3 = 0.126 [0.058, 0.270] g/100g; Selenium = 14.1 [4.5, 75.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 57.3 [10.9, 272.4] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.04 [0.90, 3.68] mg/100g (wet weight);
