Short description
Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 16; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 9 - 10; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 3; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 9 - 10; Ryggkotor: 29 - 31.
Inhabits rocky shores where it is more abundant at gently sloping shores than at steeply sloping shores. Females, non-territorial males and subadults often found foraging in groups. Feeds on plants (Ref. 27668).
Life cycle and mating behavior
Könsmognad | Reproduktion | Lek | Ägg | Fecundity | Larver
Mouth brooder with usually maternal parental care. Male defends territories. Brooding female guards fry in often not more than 0.5 m deep water, where it establishes small territories.
