पारिस्थितिकी
समुद्री प्रवाल-भित्ति संयुक्त; गहराई सीमा 10 - 400 m (Ref. 9626), usually 21 - 70 m (Ref. 9626). Subtropical; 38°N - 38°S, 98°W - 31°W (Ref. 55253)
Western Atlantic: Bermuda (Anderson, pers. comm.) and North Carolina, USA to southeastern Brazil, including Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea (Ref. 9626). Most abundant around the Antilles, on the Campeche Bank, off Panama and the northern coast of South America. Lutjanus ambiguus (Poey, 1860), an intergeneric hybrid with Ocyurus chrysurus (Bloch) as demonstrated by Loftus (1992: Ref. 33006), followed by McEachran &. Fechhelm (2005: Ref. 78464).
Length at first maturity / आकार / वज़न / Age
Maturity: Lm 23.4, range 16 - 21.5 cm
Max length : 60.0 cm TL पुल्लिंग / अलिंग; (Ref. 40637); common length : 25.0 cm TL पुल्लिंग / अलिंग; (Ref. 55); अधिकतम प्रकाशित वज़न: 3.5 kg (Ref. 40637); अधिकतम सूचित उम्र: 10 वर्षो (Ref. 3090)
पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 10; पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 12 - 13; गुदा कांटा: 3; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 8 - 9. Preopercular notch and knob weak. Pectoral fins short, not reaching level of anus. Scale rows on back rising obliquely above lateral line. Back and upper side pink to reddish, with a green tinge and diffused darker vertical bars. The lower sides and belly silvery with a yellow tinge. A series of 8 - 10 horizontal yellow or golden stripes on sides. A diffused black spot mainly above the lateral line and below the anterior portion of the soft dorsal-fin rays.
Adults are found over all types of bottom, but mainly around coral reefs and on vegetated sandy areas. In turbid as well as clear water (Ref. 9710). They often form large aggregations, especially during the breeding season. Feed at night on small fishes, bottom-living crabs, shrimps, worms, gastropods and cephalopods. Good food fish, it is marketed fresh.
Often form large aggregations, especially during the breeding season.
