Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Feeds mainly on small benthic invertebrates like ophiuroids, chitons, amphipods, and small gastropods. Adults feed by rummaging on the bottom while juveniles and sub-adults are facultative cleaner symbionts and pick parasites from the bodies of other fish. They also feed on benthic organisms (Ref. 26966).

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=0.00977 (0.00470 - 0.02030), b=3.07 (2.89 - 3.25), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.6   ±0.3 se; based on diet studies.
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (15 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 15.8 [4.8, 47.4] mg/100g; Iron = 0.213 [0.115, 0.453] mg/100g; Protein = 18.8 [15.9, 21.0] %; Omega3 = 0.376 [0.157, 0.883] g/100g; Selenium = 6.9 [2.2, 22.7] μg/100g; VitaminA = 82.1 [20.6, 393.4] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.988 [0.427, 1.860] mg/100g (wet weight);
