Description synthétique Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie

Épines dorsales (Total) : 3; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 12 - 13; Épines anales: 0; Rayons mous anaux: 8. Comes in a variety of colors: yellow, orange, green, brown, and black. Bony part of illicium about equal to length of the 2nd dorsal spine (10.2-16.9 %SL); esca a small tuft of flattened appendages (Ref. 4538). Illicial length in %SL: 19.3-25.2 (Ref. 6773). Membrane behind 2nd dorsal spine thick and spinulose, extending to base of third (Ref. 6773). One of the largest species (Ref. 48635).
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep; Cross section: compressed.

Found in lagoon and seaward reefs (Ref. 9710), often on jetty (Ref. 48635). Benthic (Ref. 58302). Feed on fish (Ref. 11889) and small shrimps (Ref. 89972). Oviparous. Eggs are bound in ribbon-like sheath or mass of gelatinous mucus called 'egg raft' or 'veil' (Ref. 6773). Solitary and frequently among sponges in 1-50 m, usually less than 20 m (Ref 90102).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Réf. 123201): 24.5 - 29, mean 27.9 °C (based on 652 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Réf. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5002 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02630 (0.01029 - 0.06725), b=2.96 (2.73 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Réf. 69278): 4.2 ±0.73 se; based on food items.

Résilience (Réf. 120179): Haut, temps minimum de doublement de population inférieur à 15 mois (Fec assumed to be > 10,000).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (35 of 100). 🛈

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 35.3 [17.9, 59.7] mg/100g; Iron = 0.568 [0.304, 0.993] mg/100g; Protein = 19 [17, 22] %; Omega3 = 0.105 [0.040, 0.254] g/100g; Selenium = 34.5 [16.4, 78.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 101 [26, 373] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.82 [0.53, 1.24] mg/100g (wet weight);
