Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 14 - 15; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 14 - 16; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 10 - 11. Diagnosis: lower pharyngeal bone about as long as broad, with anterior lamella shorter than toothed area; median pharyngeal teeth broadened when compared to lateral teeth; 3-4 series of scales on cheeks; 4-4.5 scales between first dorsal fin spine and upper lateral line (Ref. 53405). Dark vertical bars narrower than lighter inter-spaces (Ref. 52307, 53405).

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Probably pair-bonding, open substratum spawner, with both parents guarding the brood (Ref. 52307).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Fonte Biblio. 82804):  PD50 = 0.7500   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01862 (0.00830 - 0.04177), b=3.01 (2.82 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Fonte Biblio. 69278):  3.5   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Fonte Biblio. 120179):  Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (15 of 100). 🛈
