Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 13; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 12 - 13; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 13 - 14.

Adults are found amongst rubble and coral of clear sheltered lagoons and subtidal reef flats (Ref. 9710, 48636). They occur in groups of a male and several females or juveniles (Ref. 1602). Feed on algae, pelagic tunicates and copepods. Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Eggs are demersal and adhere to the substrate (Ref. 205). Males guard and aerate the eggs (Ref. 205). Diurnal species (Ref. 113699).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 25.9 - 29.3, mean 28.6 °C (based on 2106 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01479 (0.00642 - 0.03409), b=3.00 (2.80 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 2.5 ±0.1 se; based on diet studies.

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).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 151 [83, 261] mg/100g; Iron = 0.929 [0.564, 1.489] mg/100g; Protein = 18.6 [17.5, 19.6] %; Omega3 = 0.136 [0.082, 0.224] g/100g; Selenium = 18.7 [10.6, 34.7] μg/100g; VitaminA = 135 [43, 423] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.45 [1.67, 3.44] mg/100g (wet weight);
