Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 16 - 18; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 10 - 12; Spine anali: 1; Raggi anali molli: 19 - 21; Vertebre: 35 - 38. Identified by trunk having several longitudinal stripes (Ref. 48636, 94457).
Adults inhabit clear coastal reefs with moderate currents (Ref. 9710, 48636). Usually in small groups on sponges or reef outcrops. They feed on zooplankton (Ref. 48636). 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). Minimum depth of 0 m reported from Ref. 13227.

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 25.1 - 29.3, mean 28.5 °C (based on 1875 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00617 (0.00288 - 0.01322), b=3.04 (2.86 - 3.22), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.4 ±0.45 se; based on food items.
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
