Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 18 - 20; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 9 - 10; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 19 - 21. Has a reddish head with rose blotches and an olive green body with irregular light streaks and blotches.
Eggs are hemispherical and covered with numerous sticky threads that anchor them in the algae on the nesting sites (Ref. 240). Larvae are planktonic which occur primarily in shallow, nearshore waters (Ref. 94114).
