Single cirrus on each side of nape; 3-6 cirri on supraorbital tentacle; upper lip margin smooth medially, lateral 1/3 crenulate; body coloration light gray-brown, 6 short paired bars along sides of body, numerous, generally longitudinal, rows of white spots and dashes; head pale brown bearing 2 oblique black striations behind eye and brown band between, dorsally with numerous dark brown dots, and dark brown lines on ventral area. Dorsal spines XIII, 13-15 (rarely 13); anal rays usually 16; lateral line terminating below second and fourth dorsal soft rays; gill rakers 16-17 (Ref. 54980).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Facultative air-breathing in the genus (Ref. 126274); 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).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae

Oviparous, distinct pairing (Ref. 205).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00741 (0.00335 - 0.01640), b=3.02 (2.83 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  2.0   ±0.00 se; based on food items.
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
