Short description Morfología | Morfometría

Espinas dorsales (total): 12; Radios blandos dorsales (total): 20; Espinas anales 2; Radios blandos anales: 20; Vértebra: 36 - 37. This species is distinguished by the following set of characters: head and body with 2 dark lateral stripes, the lower one broadly extending onto the anal fin; dorsal fin with basal 4/5 to 2/3 of fin very dark and superimposed by 5 or 6 approximately equally spaced pale spots, the first spot conspicuous, discrete, and round, the others diffuse and partially extending onto the dorsum; dorsal fin XII, 20 (Ref. 58774).

Biología     Glosario (por ej. epibenthic)

Collected using rotenone and hand-nets from sand and rubble slope with scattered outcroppings, below base of a vertical reef drop-off, with vertical grooves and small holes and caves, 67-110 meter depth (Ref. 58774). Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114).

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01122 (0.00514 - 0.02450), b=3.04 (2.87 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278):  2.6   ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resiliencia (Ref. 120179):  Alto, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo inferior a 15 meses (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
