Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

Body moderately deep and compressed; dorsal fin with 10 thick spines and 11 to 12 soft rays (X,11-12); interspinal membranes with terminal cirri; pectoral fins wide, with 14 rays, the lower 7 thickened and unbranched, with notched membranes; body olive green to red, with 4 dark oblique bars with cobalt blue borders; head with similar dark bars (Ref. 55763).

Solitary, bottom-living in shallow waters (Ref. 28023). Lies very still on rock ledges and is well camouflaged against the rocks. Feeds on crustaceans and small fishes (Ref. 37955). Considered a good food fish (Ref. 9289).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 21.6 - 29.1, mean 26.7 °C (based on 117 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5625 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00933 (0.00367 - 0.02375), b=3.07 (2.85 - 3.29), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.0 ±0.67 se; based on food items.

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (44 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 42.5 [27.0, 64.0] mg/100g; Iron = 0.593 [0.384, 1.010] mg/100g; Protein = 19.5 [18.6, 20.5] %; Omega3 = 0.126 [0.088, 0.179] g/100g; Selenium = 35.9 [21.8, 60.2] μg/100g; VitaminA = 50.6 [20.3, 128.0] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.08 [0.79, 1.44] mg/100g (wet weight);
