Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 13; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 15 - 16; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 16 - 18. Pale olive grey with 3 broad, dusky bands radiating from eye, series of H-shaped dark bars on side of body, and large black spot distally between first and second dorsal spines. Dorsal fin deeply notched; anal rays rarely 16; pectoral rays usually 14; pelvic spine not visible externally; last lateral-line tube below 10th dorsal spine to caudal peduncle; nape with 1 cirrus on each side; supraorbital tentacle blade-like without cirri; anterior nostril cirri present posteriorly; upper lip margin crenulate medially; body depth at anal-fin origin about 5.0 in SL (Ref. 90102).
Facultative air-breathing in the genus (Ref. 126274); Adults are found on exposed rocky coasts in the intertidal zone to 3 m deep (Ref. 90102). Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114).
Oviparous, distinct pairing (Ref. 205).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 25.1 - 29.2, mean 28.8 °C (based on 988 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.

50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00776 (0.00356 - 0.01695), b=3.00 (2.81 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
