Max length : 100.0 cm SL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 4781); common length : 32.5 cm SL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 4781); poids max. publié: 8.1 kg (Ref. 40637)
Live in small groups though large individuals may be solitary. Inhabit inshore waters, close to the bottom on various substrates (specially rocky) to 150 m. Adults feed on fish, crustaceans and cephalopods while the young feed on plankton (Ref. 4781). Important food fish.
