Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 10; Dorsal soft rays (total): 14-16; Anal spines : 3; Anal soft rays : 12. Body blue-green to reddish dorsally, lighter ventrally; above pectoral fin is a large yellow blotch of variable size, roughly rhomboid in shape, the oblique side slanting anteriorly. 4 scales on cheek; 22-27 predorsal scales; scaled dorsal and anal fins; Upper peduncular scale rows usually 11-13 (11-14); lower peduncular scale rows usually 15 or 16 (15-17). Supra-temporal band of scales confluent at dorsal midline. basioccipital with a broad, flat process for attachment of Baudelot's ligament; processes not extending much more ventrally than rim of condyle. Post maxillary with 2 processes; posterior end of maxilla tapered (Ref. 1723 ). Head length 3.3-3.6 in SL; body depth 3.4-4.9 in SL (Ref. 90102 ).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Ranges widely around coral reefs in school. Feeds on zooplankton in midwater aggregations. Oviparous, with numerous, small pelagic eggs (Ref. 402 ). Easily recognized from a distance by the bright yellow marking (Ref. 48636 ). Also caught by drive-in nets.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 28.4 - 29.3, mean 28.9 °C (based on 949 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5002   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01072 (0.00467 - 0.02458), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.4   ±0.45 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 (15 of 100). Price category (Ref. 80766 ):   Unknown . Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 76.6 [50.3, 121.8] mg/100g; Iron = 0.84 [0.54, 1.24] mg/100g; Protein = 19 [18, 20] %; Omega3 = 0.142 [0.095, 0.210] g/100g; Selenium = 28.4 [17.8, 49.7] μg/100g; VitaminA = 112 [46, 285] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.29 [0.93, 1.74] mg/100g (wet weight);
