More on author: Forsskål . Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range Ecology Marine; demersal; depth range 1 - 450 m (Ref. 100719 ), usually 5 - 100 m (Ref. 30573 ).

Length at first maturity / Size / Weight / Age Maturity: L m 30.9   range ? - ? cm Max length : 80.0 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 124569 ); common length : 30.0 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 3507 ) Short description Morphology | Morphometrics Dorsal spines (total): 11 - 13; Dorsal soft rays (total): 9-10; Anal spines : 3; Anal soft rays : 7 - 8; Vertebrae : 24. This species is distinguished from all its congeners by the following set of characters: body deep and becoming compressed and less deep with growth; D XII,10, the first 2 dorsal-fin spines rudimentary (2 dorsal-fin spines on first dorsal pterygiophore); the dorsal-fin with two morpho types of configuration (Type I 'rigid type', fragile] as a rigid tapering spine and Type II ['flexible type', comparatively robust] as a flexible tapering spine in Group A - Red Sea, Group B - Gulf of Aden and eastern coast of Africa, and Group C - Persian Gulf, only Type II, is seen in both Group D - Madagascar to Sri Lanka and Group E - Eastern Indian Ocean, each Group is allopatric and is likely to have similar genetic structure (not analyzed in Group D or E). Colouration: body uniform pink with belly and lower jaw silvery, head red; spinous dorsal fin pink or red, other fins pink or pale pink; with pink tinge around eye; upper jaw often pinkish; anterior and posterior margins of the upper cheek scales nearly parallel just below rear edge of eye; orbit diameter is clearly less than suborbital depth (Ref. 124569 ). Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic) Found in a wide range of bottoms. Young fish occur in very shallow waters of sheltered bays; larger individuals in deeper water. Feed on benthic invertebrates, mainly mollusks (Ref. 5213 ). Important food fish.
