Max length : 50.0 cm TL αρσενικό/απροσδιόριστο; (Ref. 7360); common length : 30.0 cm SL αρσενικό/απροσδιόριστο; (Ref. 6761)

In shallow water along rocky shores. Feed on algae and small invertebrates (Ref. 6761, 56146). Herbivore species with specialized pharyngeal bones and muscles (Ref. 52194, 52195). Breeding occurs from July to September, with juveniles recruiting in late summer in Portugal (Ref. 56146).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturities | Αναπαραγωγή | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | Προνύμφες

Males matured at the same ages and sizes as did females, and size ranges of males and females overlapped, strongly suggesting gonochorism for this species (Ref. 103751).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 15.1 - 20.3, mean 17.1 °C (based on 34 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01047 (0.00833 - 0.01317), b=3.08 (3.03 - 3.13), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).

Τροφικό Επίπεδο (Ref. 69278): 2.9 ±0.27 se; based on food items.

Generation time: 3.7 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.

Ελαστικότητα (Ref. 120179): Μεσαίο(α), ελάχιστος χρόνος για διπλασιασμό πληθυσμού 1,4 - 4,4 έτη (K=0.16; tmax=8).

Prior r = 0.48, 95% CL = 0.32 - 0.72, Based on 2 data-limited stock assessments.
