Etymology:
Sparisoma:
Latin, sparus = a fish with a golden head + Greek, soma = body (Ref.
45335
)
.

Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecology
Marine; reef-associated; depth range 1 - 15 m (Ref.
9710
). Tropical; 42°N - 7°N, 88°W - 59°W (Ref.
88982
)
Western Atlantic and the Caribbean. Confused with Southwest Atlantic specimens referring to
Sparisoma axillare
and Eastern Atlantic species referring to
S. chaoti
(Ref.

Juveniles and adults in drab phase (which are either mature males or females) are light grayish brown, nearly white ventrally; alternate dark and pale bars cross the chin; caudal peduncle and fin yellow; anal and pelvic fins red. Terminal phase males are dull green or blue-green with a large black spot on upper half of pectoral fin base; pectoral fins dark olive, the outer fifth abruptly pale (Ref.
13442
).
Inhabits coral reefs and seagrass beds. Juveniles or primary-phase fish can rapidly assume a mottled pattern as it comes to rest on the bottom. Spawning is usually a group activity in similarly colored males and females (Ref.
5521
). A protogynous hermaphrodite (Ref.
55367
).

Although protogyny was propossed for this species (Ref.
27876
), probably because testicular characteristics showed a secondary characteristic of sex-changed males, observations of overlapping size ranges of males and females, and males maturing at the same ages and sizes as did females, strongly suggest gonochorism (Ref.
103751
). A monandric species (Ref.
55367
). Length at sex change = 25.0 cm TL (Ref.
55367
). Forms leks during breeding (Ref.
55367
).
