Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Adults inhabit coral reefs (Ref. 9710). Are mesoplankton feeders (Ref. 94107). Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae

Oviparous, distinct pairing (Ref. 205).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 25.4 - 29.1, mean 27.5 °C (based on 649 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00741 (0.00335 - 0.01640), b=3.02 (2.83 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  2.0   ±0.00 se; based on food items.
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 = 219 [104, 399] mg/100g; Iron = 1.03 [0.58, 1.87] mg/100g; Protein = 17.8 [16.5, 18.9] %; Omega3 = 0.0891 [, ] g/100g; Selenium = 25.4 [11.5, 60.3] μg/100g; VitaminA = 113 [27, 472] μg/100g; Zinc = 3.1 [2.0, 4.6] mg/100g (wet weight);
