Biología     Glosario (por ej. epibenthic)

Most common near weed banks and coral reefs in shallow-water, but not captured in shallow areas of southern waters. Oviparous (Ref. 205), and are multiple spawners with synchronous development (Ref. 36823). Associated with S. burrus, S. schomburgkii, and S. analis. The flesh is of excellent quality (Ref. 6205).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 22.2 - 24.8, mean 22.8 °C (based on 6 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00851 (0.00366 - 0.01979), b=3.07 (2.86 - 3.28), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278):  3.5   ±0.2 se; based on diet studies.
Generation time: 2.6 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2 growth studies.
Resiliencia (Ref. 120179):  Alto, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo inferior a 15 meses (K=0.4).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low to moderate vulnerability (29 of 100).
Price category (Ref. 80766):   Very high.
