Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 9 - 11; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 11 - 12; Spine anali: 1; Raggi anali molli: 12 - 13. This is a sexually dimorphic species, with males possessing greatly elongate first spine of first dorsal fin, reaching eighth element of second dorsal fin when appressed; when preserved first dorsal fin brown or black with white distal edge, no spots; margin of first dorsal fin concave in males while concave to straight in females; second dorsal fin with two black bands, broader one located inframarginally and the other located medially, black spots basally on membrane between dorsal fin elements; pelvic fin with prominent frenum and inner rays fused for more than half of length. D1 modally IX; D2 modally I,12; A modally I,13; caudal fin rays modally 15 segmented rays, with first and last two rays unbranched; 62-67 lateral scale rows; 18-24 predorsal scales (Ref. 83659).

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274); An intertidal and amphibious air-breather that actively shuttles back and forth between rock pools and air (Ref. 31184).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 27.6 - 29.4, mean 28.6 °C (based on 192 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01072 (0.00667 - 0.01721), b=2.91 (2.77 - 3.05), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.2   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref. 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).
