Ecología
marino asociado a arrecife; rango de profundidad 0 - 400 m (Ref. 58302), usually 15 - 60 m (Ref. 30464). Subtropical; 19°S - 42°S, 114°E - 76°W
Eastern and western South Pacific: Exact distribution unknown because of taxonomic uncertainties.
Tamaño / Peso / Age
Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 55.0 cm FL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 89444); common length : 30.0 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 30464)
Espinas dorsales (total) : 10; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 19 - 21; Espinas anales: 3; Radios blandos anales: 7 - 9; Vértebra: 26. Lateral line scales of individuals in the eastern Pacific is 58-65, in western Pacific 61-71 (Ref. 120532). Monochromatic orange-red or with black spots on the dorsal fin (Ref. 43805). Congruent rays of the dorsal fin and a caudal fin with a deep median notch in both sexes (Ref. 43805). Preopercle serrate, but without antrorse spines (Ref. 40817).
Occurs inshore near reefs (Ref. 7300). Benthopelagic and benthic (Ref. 58302). Feeds on plankton and small nekton. Occasionally caught on small hooks when fishing in midwater without sinker and make excellent eating (Ref. 30464). Its abundant gillrakers and stomach contents characterize it as an opportunistic pelagic polyphagic-zooplanktivorous predator (Rojas et al. 1998a, c) (Ref. 89357).
