Short description Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri

Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 17; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 18 - 20; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 3; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 6 - 7; Ryggkotor: 35. Adults have a short-based anal fin, pectoral fins with thickened lower rays, and are grey to blue-black with lighter mottling on the sides and light spots on the fins (Ref. 33616). It is distinguished from its congeners in having larger body scales (lateral-line scales 72± 82 vs. 83± 120) and absence of vomerine teeth (Ref. 86913).

Biologi     Ordlista (t.ex. epibenthic)

Found on shallow exposed rocky shores, aggregating in high-energy zone, just below foaming surface to depths of about 10 m (Ref. 9002); in kelp and weed areas (Ref. 86913). Feed on either loose or attached weeds and algae (Ref. 9002); mainly consisting of Corallina pilulifera, together with smaller quantities of Ulva actuca, Jania and filamentous species such as Sphacelaria sp. (Ref. 86913).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 17.6 - 27.5, mean 25.5 °C (based on 400 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5625   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00479 (0.00191 - 0.01196), b=3.13 (2.91 - 3.35), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278):  2.0   ±0.00 se; based on food items.
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Moderate vulnerability (42 of 100).
