Ecologia
marino demersale. Tropical; ? - 22°C (Ref. 54666)
Western Atlantic: Bahamas and Cuba and possibly off Yucatan, Mexico.
Length at first maturity / Size / Peso / Age
Maturity: Lm 5.7  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 21.5 cm TL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 5521)
Sluggish, but pugnacious when approached closely (Ref. 5521). Dark coloration of the buccal cavity more developed in the larger specimens indicating that this trait is related to growth or maturation (Ref. 54666).
