Cephalopholis spiloparaea in Indonesia
Strawberry hind

Go to Species Summary

Cephalopholis spiloparaea   (Valenciennes, 1828)
Family:	Serranidae (Sea basses: groupers and fairy basslets) , subfamily: Epinephelinae			picture (Cespi_u0.jpg) by Randall, J.E.
Order:	Perciformes  (perch-likes)
Class:	Actinopterygii (ray-finned fishes)
FishBase name:	Strawberry hind
Max. size:	30.0 cm TL (male/unsexed; Ref. 48636)
Environment:	reef-associated; non-migratory ; depth range 15 - 108 m
Climate:	tropical; 32°N - 30°S
Global Importance:	fisheries: minor commercial
Resilience:	Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.)
Distribution:	Indo-Pacific: Pinda, Mozambique (15°S) to French Polynesia and the Pitcairn Group, north to the Ryukyu Islands, south to Heron Island at the southern end of the Great Barrier Reef. Often misidentified as Cephalopholis aurantia (or as Cephalopholis analis, a junior synonym of Cephalopholis aurantia).
Diagnosis:	Dorsal spines (total): 9-9; Dorsal soft rays (total): 14-16; Anal spines: 3-3; Anal soft rays: 9-10
Biology:	Perhaps the most common grouper on Indo-Pacific coral reefs found below 40 m. The species is only known from insular localities except those collected from Pinda, Mozambique. Apparently, nothing is known of the biology of this species. The small size (<22 cm TL) and deep-water habitat of this species makes it less vulnerable to fishing (Ref. 58472)
Threatened:	, (Ref. 36508)
Dangerous:	harmless
Coordinator:	Heemstra, Phillip C.
Main Ref:	Heemstra, P.C. and J.E. Randall. 1993. (Ref. 5222)
