Descrição breve Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria

Espinhos dorsais (total) : 18 - 19; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 10 - 11. Depth of body 2.2-2.5 times in SL; head length 3.1-3.4 times in SL (Ref. 47113). Eye diameter 3.0-3.1 times in HL; interorbital width 3.4-3.8 times in HL; premaxillary pedicel 2.5-3.0 times in HL and depth of preorbital 5.7-6.4 times in HL (Ref. 47113). Teeth in 3 rows in upper jaw and 3 to 4 rows in lower jaw (Ref. 47113). Males have only unicuspid teeth; in females the outer row of the lower jaw is mostly bicuspid (Ref. 47113). Length of pectoral fin 2.5-2.8 times in SL (Ref. 47113). Caudal peduncle 6.9-7.4 times in SL; peduncle depth 1.0-1.1 times in its length (Ref. 47113). Scales: 34-35 scales in a longitudinal series (Ref. 47113). Two, sometimes only one, distinct spots on the flank (Ref. 47113).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturities | Reprodução | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | Larvas

The spawning site or nest is normally constructed under and against a rock with a diameter of between 50 to 200 cm; the male excavates the sand from beneath the rock and heaps it up, building a semicircular wall around the spawning site; male spawning sites are usually at least 4 meters apart (Ref. 47113).

Estimates based on models

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01514 (0.00700 - 0.03275), b=2.97 (2.80 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nível Trófico (Ref. 69278): 3.4 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

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

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
