Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Adults are found in intertidal and subtidal areas on exposed rocks covered with algae (Ref. 13227). Eggs are hemispherical and covered with numerous sticky threads that anchor them in the algae on the nesting sites (Ref. 240). Larvae are planktonic which occur primarily in shallow, nearshore waters (Ref. 94114).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 17.6 - 25.2, mean 22.9 °C (based on 112 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.7500   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00562 (0.00258 - 0.01228), b=3.08 (2.89 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.3   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 122 [58, 297] mg/100g; Iron = 0.5 [0.2, 1.1] mg/100g; Protein = 17.6 [16.3, 18.9] %; Omega3 = 0.332 [0.130, 0.823] g/100g; Selenium = 7.73 [2.78, 21.26] μg/100g; VitaminA = 24.5 [4.9, 121.5] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.17 [0.72, 1.84] mg/100g (wet weight);
