Biologie     Fachlexikon (Englisch) (z.B. epibenthic)

Adults inhabit rocky reefs, below the surf zone (Ref. 9334). Feed mainly on low-profile, attached algae (Ref. 28023). Defend both feeding and reproductive territories by driving off other fishes and divers who come too close (Ref. 28023). 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 (Ref. 123201): 24.2 - 29.2, mean 28.8 °C (based on 906 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5625   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01950 (0.00922 - 0.04124), b=3.00 (2.82 - 3.18), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  2.1   ±0.05 se; based on food items.
Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref. 120179):  niedrig, Verdopplung der Population dauert 4,5 - 14 Jahre. (tmax=20).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low to moderate vulnerability (28 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 59.4 [28.8, 106.5] mg/100g; Iron = 0.595 [0.338, 1.029] mg/100g; Protein = 18.1 [16.8, 19.4] %; Omega3 = 0.0723 [, ] g/100g; Selenium = 21.3 [10.4, 45.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 60.4 [13.1, 242.8] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.63 [1.08, 2.50] mg/100g (wet weight);
