Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 9; Dorsal soft rays (total): 11; Anal spines: 3; Anal soft rays: 10; Vertebrae: 25. Head with two slightly oblique blue bands extending downward from lower part of opercle onto inter opercle. Dorsal fin red, base and postventral part, yellowish; anal fin deep burgundy-red; caudal fin upper part yellow, lower red; pectorals hyaline with thin red lines on rays, base yellow; pelvic fins blue. With five predorsal scales (rarely 3 or 4); two cheek scale rows behind the eye, three below the eye.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 17.6 - 24.3, mean 20.2 (based on 13 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5002 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00501 (0.00207 - 0.01214), b=3.15 (2.94 - 3.36), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.5 ±0.37 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).
