Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale): 17; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 18-20; Spine anali 3; Raggi anali molli: 6 - 7; Vertebre: 35. Adults have a short-based anal fin, pectoral fins with thickened lower rays, and are grey to blue-black with lighter mottling on the sides and light spots on the fins (Ref. 33616). It is distinguished from its congeners in having larger body scales (lateral-line scales 72± 82 vs. 83± 120) and absence of vomerine teeth (Ref. 86913).

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Found on shallow exposed rocky shores, aggregating in high-energy zone, just below foaming surface to depths of about 10 m (Ref. 9002); in kelp and weed areas (Ref. 86913). Feed on either loose or attached weeds and algae (Ref. 9002); mainly consisting of Corallina pilulifera, together with smaller quantities of Ulva actuca, Jania and filamentous species such as Sphacelaria sp. (Ref. 86913).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 17.6 - 27.5, mean 25.5 °C (based on 400 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5625   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00468 (0.00190 - 0.01153), b=3.14 (2.92 - 3.36), 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.
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Moderate vulnerability (42 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 126 [61, 271] mg/100g; Iron = 1.28 [0.74, 2.46] mg/100g; Protein = 18.1 [17.0, 19.2] %; Omega3 = 0.147 [0.074, 0.292] g/100g; Selenium = 25.7 [11.8, 62.1] μg/100g; VitaminA = 6.8 [1.6, 28.5] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.28 [0.85, 1.93] mg/100g (wet weight);
