Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Adults inhabit shallow rocky reefs and associated with colonies of Millepora alcicornis (Floeter 1998, pers. comm.). Feed mainly on benthic algae and aggressively territorial (Floeter 1998, pers. comm.). Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Eggs are demersal and adhere to the substrate (Ref. 205). Males guard and aerate the eggs (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=0.01259 (0.00499 - 0.03175), b=3.04 (2.83 - 3.25), 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.
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 409 [262, 985] mg/100g ; Iron = 1.8 [1.1, 3.2] mg/100g ; Protein = 17.5 [16.5, 18.4] % ; Omega3 = 0.224 [0.121, 0.409] g/100g ; Selenium = 32.2 [16.3, 68.2] μg/100g ; VitaminA = 37.4 [11.4, 121.0] μg/100g ; Zinc = 2.77 [1.88, 4.05] mg/100g (wet weight);
