Etymology: Scolopsis: Name from the Greek masculine noun 'skolos' meaning 'thorn' and suffix '-opsis' (from Greek feminine n. 'opsis' meaning 'aspect', 'appearance') meaning ‘thorny appearance’ presumably referring to 'les dentelures de la préopercule, en ont aussi, et même d'épineuses, aux sous-orbitaires' mentioned by Cuvier (1814) in his designation of the genus. Name ending in -'opsis' are treated as feminine according to ICZN 1999: Article 30.1.2 (Ref. 130620).

Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 10; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 8 - 9; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 7 - 8; Vertebre: 24. Body is olive above and white below, with a silvery-white stripe on the back beneath the dorsal fin. A row of golden yellow spots are on the sides, mid laterally from behind the tip of the pectoral fin to the caudal peduncle. The upper and lower edges of the caudal fins are reddish (Ref. 3810).

Inhabits sandy bottoms close to coral reefs. Also near mangroves (Ref. 48635). Frequently in silty areas with low visibility (Ref. 90102). Occurs often in small groups. Feeds on benthic invertebrates and small fishes.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 26.3 - 29.3, mean 28.8 (based on 1970 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01820 (0.01049 - 0.03156), b=3.06 (2.92 - 3.20), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.7 ±0.52 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 (15 of 100).
