Short description पहचान कुंजी | आकृति विज्ञान | मौरफोमैटरिक्स

पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 9; पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 23 - 25; गुदा कांटा: 3; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 22 - 24. Body of adult dark grayish brown; juveniles yellow; posterior to upper end of gill opening is a bright orange horizontal band, with purplish black border. Head and anterior half of body usually abruptly paler than the posterior half. Anterior gill rakers 24-28; posterior 23-27. Large adult males (about 17 cm) with more definite convexity of snout profile.

Inhabit seaward reefs, in areas of bare rock or mixed rubble and sand, from 9 to at least 46 m depth; juveniles inhabit protected bays and lagoons, singly or in small groups in as little as 3 m (Ref. 1602, 48637). Benthopelagic (Ref. 58302). Adults occur singly or in schools and feed on surface film of detritus, diatoms, and fine filamentous algae covering sand and bare rock (Ref. 1602). Rarely poisonous (Ref. 4795).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 24.5 - 28.7, mean 27.3 °C (based on 356 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02630 (0.01711 - 0.04044), b=3.00 (2.88 - 3.12), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 2.3 ±0.17 se; based on food items.

Generation time: 1.0 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.

लौटाव (Ref. 120179): बहुत नीचे, न्यूनतम जनसंख्या दुगनी समय अवलागत 14 महीने। (tmax=33).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (18 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Medium.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 69.2 [29.5, 211.4] mg/100g; Iron = 0.926 [0.341, 2.370] mg/100g; Protein = 18.5 [17.2, 19.7] %; Omega3 = 0.109 [0.049, 0.238] g/100g; Selenium = 23.8 [8.1, 73.5] μg/100g; VitaminA = 23.6 [5.9, 93.8] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.68 [0.83, 4.91] mg/100g (wet weight);
