Etymology: Scarus: Greek, skaros = a fish described by anciente writers as a parrot fish; 1601 (Ref. 45335).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
生態學
海洋 礁區魚類; 深度上下限 3 - 25 m (Ref. 9710). ; 39°N - 24°S, 98°W - 31°W
Western Atlantic: Maryland in the USA, Bermuda and Bahamas to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (Ref. 13628), including the West Indies (Ref. 3802); absent in the northern Gulf of Mexico.
Length at first maturity / 大小 / 重量 / 年齡
Maturity: Lm ?, range 31 - ? cm
Max length : 120 cm TL 雄魚/尚未辨別雌雄; (Ref. 7251); common length : 35.0 cm TL 雄魚/尚未辨別雌雄; (Ref. 3802)
背棘 (總數) : 9; 背的軟條 (總數) : 10; 臀棘: 2; 臀鰭軟條: 9. Adults uniformly blue, with yellow area on top of head that disappears in larger fish. Large fish develop prominent bulging snout and extended upper and lower caudal fin lobes. No other species has this uniform blue color in adults. (Ref. 26938).
