Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 11; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 14 - 15; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 8. Dorsal profile of head steeply sloped. Preorbital width greater than eye diameter. Preopercular notch and knob poorly developed. Scale rows on back rising obliquely above lateral line. Axil of pectoral fin black. Young with a blackish or brownish band from upper jaw to the beginning of dorsal fin and a black saddle preceded by a pearly-white border on upper edge of caudal peduncle; horizontal stripes on sides (Ref. 469). Body depth 2.2-2.4 in SL (Ref. 90102).

Adults inhabit coral and rubble reefs. Usually solitary. Juveniles on muddy coastal slopes on open substrates with small outcrops of reef debris, usually in depth of 15 m or more (Ref. 48635). Relatively uncommon (Ref. 9710).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 23.9 - 28.4, mean 27.3 °C (based on 578 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01413 (0.00864 - 0.02310), b=3.04 (2.91 - 3.17), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.0 ±0.66 se; based on food items.

Generation time: 12.8 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2 growth studies.

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 4.5 - 14 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (39 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): High.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 30.4 [20.0, 42.1] mg/100g; Iron = 0.314 [0.208, 0.470] mg/100g; Protein = 18.5 [17.0, 19.8] %; Omega3 = 0.144 [0.105, 0.190] g/100g; Selenium = 71.4 [50.2, 98.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 146 [28, 515] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.424 [0.352, 0.573] mg/100g (wet weight);
