Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Males with long filament extending from one or two rays of the tail (Ref. 48636).

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

A shallow water species, forming small aggregations in well protected narrow bays or inlets. Usually in sponge habitats (Ref. 48636). Adults may be found solitary or in pairs (Ref. 90102). Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114). Mimics the young of Pentapodus trivittata (Ref. 90102). Minimum depth of 0 m reported from Ref.7401.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 28.8 - 29.3, mean 29 °C (based on 262 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01122 (0.00514 - 0.02450), b=3.04 (2.87 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.4   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 350 [212, 841] mg/100g; Iron = 1.86 [1.13, 3.25] mg/100g; Protein = 17.7 [16.7, 18.6] %; Omega3 = 0.23 [0.13, 0.42] g/100g; Selenium = 32.8 [16.2, 73.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 53.7 [16.9, 170.2] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.07 [1.37, 3.05] mg/100g (wet weight);
