	<dc:description>Adults are found on rocky or mud-sand bottom; juveniles have been taken in coastal lagoons and estuaries (Ref. 5222, 57293).  In the west African waters, diet comprise of fishes (58%), stomatopods (21%), crabs (10%), and cephalopods (10%).  It is a protogynous hermaphrodite.  The seasonal migration of the species off the coast of Senegal is influenced by the seasonal upwelling off Senegal and Mauritania.  Utilized fresh and smoked (Ref. 9987).  Highly esteemed in the market of West Africa (Ref. 5377).</dc:description>

	<dc:description>Most females change sex at about 9 kg, but smaller males (of 3 to 5 kg) are occasionally found. Total potential fecundity was estimated to range from 789,436 ova in a 44 cm SL fish of 2.2 kg to 12,589,242 ova in a 87 cm SL fish of 12.6 kg. In Tunisia, sex change occurs at 10 to 13 years (6 to 15 kg, 80 to 110 cm TL).</dc:description>
