Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 11 - 12; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 10 - 11; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 7 - 9. Occasionally with darker crossbars. Adults males with a big hump on forehead.

Inhabits shallow coastal waters. Feeds on crustaceans, mollusks, worms and small fishes (Ref. 5213). Good food fish. Sold fresh in markets. It is parasitised by the monogenean Anoplodiscus cirrusspiralis on the fins and body surface (Ref. 124057).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 15.1 - 24.9, mean 23.7 °C (based on 11 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5156 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02692 (0.01424 - 0.05086), b=3.00 (2.84 - 3.16), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.7 ±0.54 se; based on food items.

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 4.5 - 14 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (50 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Low.
