Biologie     Glossaire (ex. epibenthic)

Inhabits rocky shores where it is more abundant at gently sloping shores than at steeply sloping shores. Females, non-territorial males and subadults often found foraging in groups. Feeds on plants (Ref. 27668).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturities | Reproduction | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | Larves

Mouth brooder with usually maternal parental care. Male defends territories. Brooding female guards fry in often not more than 0.5 m deep water, where it establishes small territories.

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01514 (0.00700 - 0.03275), b=2.97 (2.80 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278):  2.0   ±0.00 se; based on food items.
Résilience (Ref. 120179):  Haut, temps minimum de doublement de population inférieur à 15 mois (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
