Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 17 - 19; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 11 - 13; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 12 - 15. Body covered with many small tubercles; head large, with numerous bony humps and ridges; spinous dorsal fin deeply emarginate, its base longer than that of the soft dorsal fin; jaws, prevomer and palatines with broad bands of conical teeth (Ref. 559).
Spawn in the calcareous deposits of colonies of the polychaeta, Salmacinasp. which makes them more of 'cavity spawners' than 'spawners in live vertebrate' (Ref. 34819, 26281).
