Ecology Summary - Gerres cinereus

Lengua:

Referencia principal	Randall, J.E., 1967
Observaciones	Inhabits shallow coastal waters in open sandy and surf areas, seagrass beds, near reefs, and mangrove channels (Ref. 7251). Enters brackishwater, sometimes even freshwater (Ref. 3722). May occur in small aggregations (Ref. 3722). Often seen feeding in sand patches among reefs by thrusting its mouth into the sediment and expelling sand from the gill openings (Ref. 13442). Feeds on benthic invertebrates such as worms, clams, crustaceans (Ref. 3722); Mobile invertebrates feeder (Ref. 57616).
