Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale): 13; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 7; Spine anali 3; Raggi anali molli: 10. A broad pale band directed from below base of last few dorsal-fin spines to upper side of pectoral-fin base; a large dark spot situated dorsally on side and on ventral edge of dorsal fin at dorsoposterior end of pale band, usually extending anteroventrally as a dark tapering marginal band on pale band at least along posteroventral edge; caudal fin uniformly pale in adults. (Ref 9823)

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Found on semi-open sandy substrates along reefs, often in deep channels to lagoons that are prone to strong tidal currents and where seawhips thrive (Ref. 48636).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 26.9 - 29, mean 28.2 °C (based on 124 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01318 (0.00582 - 0.02984), b=3.05 (2.86 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.4   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (15 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 174 [90, 339] mg/100g; Iron = 1.15 [0.62, 2.29] mg/100g; Protein = 18.1 [15.3, 20.2] %; Omega3 = 0.264 [0.153, 0.463] g/100g; Selenium = 39.3 [20.4, 81.1] μg/100g; VitaminA = 37.5 [10.4, 146.9] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.24 [0.86, 2.04] mg/100g (wet weight);
