Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 7; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 8; Spine anali: 1; Raggi anali molli: 9. Compressed head and body, and rather small eyes and sculpturing on the angle of the preopercle. Pelvic fins fused to form rounded cup, and frenum folded forming an anteriorly-facing pocket. Head and nape without scales. Eyes set laterally and high on head. Interorbital wide, about twice eye diameter. Mouth anterior and oblique, with several rows of curved pointed teeth. Tongue blunt or bilobed. Gill opening wide, gill membranes free of isthmus and each other until they meet as isthmus at a point below the eye. Unpaired fins low. Pectoral rays 19, branched in adults (Ref. 11432).

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Commensal in sponges and gorgonians (Ref. 11432, 48637).Commensal with sea pens and hollow, banching gorgonians (genus Solenocaulon) (Ref 90102).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 24.7 - 28.3, mean 27.4 (based on 110 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.6250   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00708 (0.00333 - 0.01504), b=3.09 (2.92 - 3.26), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.1   ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
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).
