Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 7; Dorsal soft rays (total): 10 - 11; Anal spines: 1; Anal soft rays: 9 - 10; Vertebrae: 26. Upper pectoral fin rays entire. Predorsal cycloid scales 10-13; ctenoid on trunk. Body dusky brown with red spots; 4 blue spots on operculum; black line running from eye along sensory pore path to pectoral base; 2 dusky blotches on pectoral base, the uppermost spreading onto fin rays; large inverted `U'-shaped blotch on the cheek. In male, appressed anal fin occasionally reaching caudal fin, appressed dorsal reaching or overlapping caudal fin. Appressed anal and dorsal fins of female ending 2-3 and 1-2 scales, respectively, of caudal fin.

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Common in sandy bottoms of shallow waters. Also observed to live solitarily or in small schools near crevices or under stones. Occurs at 21.5 °C (Ref. 4959).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 24.3 - 28.1, mean 27.4 °C (based on 299 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5010   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01023 (0.00477 - 0.02194), b=3.01 (2.83 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.3   ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 455 [217, 1,141] mg/100g; Iron = 1.73 [0.93, 3.44] mg/100g; Protein = 17.6 [15.8, 19.2] %; Omega3 = 0.235 [0.094, 0.480] g/100g; Selenium = 30.1 [14.5, 66.1] μg/100g; VitaminA = 39.3 [10.9, 126.7] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.31 [1.53, 3.52] mg/100g (wet weight);
