Descrição suscinta Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria

Espinhos dorsais (total) : 9; Raios dorsais (total) : 10; Espinhos anais: 3; Raios anais : 9. Young adults of both sexes dark gray overall, with broad white stripe slightly below mid-side. Super males have upper pectoral fin margin and upper and lower margins of tail dusky with submarginal band of brownish orange (Ref. 26938).

Inhabits coral reefs and adjacent habitats. Feeds on algae scraped from rocks or dead coral. Sleeps in a mucus cocoon (Ref. 9710). Often seen in groups of one super male with several young adults, most of which are probably females (Ref. 26938). A protogynous hermaphrodite (Ref. 55367).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 26.2 - 28.2, mean 27.4 °C (based on 528 cells).

Índice de diversidade filogenética (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01445 (0.00686 - 0.03044), b=3.03 (2.86 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nível Trófico (Ref. 69278): 2.0 ±0.00 se; based on food items.

Generation time: 1.8 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.

Resiliência (Ref. 120179): Elevada, tempo mínimo de duplicação da população menor que 15 meses (K=0.6).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (28 of 100).

Categoria de preço (Ref. 80766): High.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 34.6 [22.3, 60.2] mg/100g; Iron = 0.758 [0.526, 1.144] mg/100g; Protein = 18.8 [16.7, 20.6] %; Omega3 = 0.0836 [, ] g/100g; Selenium = 21.8 [13.9, 34.1] μg/100g; VitaminA = 32.1 [9.6, 110.6] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.95 [1.48, 2.53] mg/100g (wet weight);
