Scarus rubroviolaceus (Bleeker 1847)
Genus: , ,

Scientific Name: Scarus rubroviolaceus

English Name: Ember parrotfish

Creole Name: Kakatwa rouz

French Name: Perroquet braisé

IUCN Red List Status: Least Concern (LC)

Description:

Dorsal spines: 9; Dorsal rays: 10; Anal spines: 3; Anal rays: 9.

Medium to large sized, moderately full-bodied parrotfish. Lips cover one to two-thirds of dental plates; no canine teeth on lower dental plate of either 
phase; initial phase with 0-1 canines on upper dental plate and terminal phase with 1-3 canines. Adults, particularly terminal phase, develop distinctive 
gibbus forehead.

Initial Phase: body red, scales with dark edges and intermittent, elongated, horizontal dark markings giving an overall mottled and reticulated appearance,
becoming plain red ventrally. Front of head red. Dental plates pale red to white. Iris yellow with an outer rim of red. Median fins dull light orange-red. 
Pectoral fins red on dorsal third, pale with orange-red rays on ventral two-thirds. Pelvic fins red. Caudal fin truncate on small fish, emarginate on larger 
individuals.

Terminal Phase: Salient characteristics are green body with rich greenish-yellow on flanks, gibbus forehead and lunate tail.  Detailed description 
(derived primarily from Randall & Bruce 1983): green dorsally, suffused with dark purplish, shading to greenish yellow on sides, the scales edged in 
orange, and becoming light blue-green ventrally. Edge of upper lip narrowly salmon-pink with a broad band of blue-green above it; edge of lower lip 
blue-green. Chin salmon crossed by a band of blue-green which curves dorsally to join blue-green band of lower lip and continues to region below and 
slightly posterior to orbit. Iris orange. Dental plates blue-green edged in white. Dorsal fin orange with a blue border, a streak of blue-green along each 
ray reducing to green spot posteriorly. Anal fin blue with an orange band near base of fin. Pectoral fins broadly blue-green on upper edge, often with a 
streak of violet just below it, the rest of the fin pale with blue-green rays which fade to whitish distally. Pelvic fins orange with a broad blue lateral 
margin. Caudal fin lobes blue. Central part orangish enclosing a semicircular blue-green region with narrow orange margin.
 


Size:

Maturity: Lm unknown. Range unknown. Max Length: 70 cm TL.
 


Habitat and Ecology:

Inhabits rocky or coral seaward reefs (depth 1-36 m). Found solitary or in pairs but may also form large dense schools of 300-400 individuals (Choat et al.
2012). Feeds on benthic algae. A monandric protogynous hermaphrodite. Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding. Choat et al. (2012) cited maximum age 
of specimens in Seychelles as 11 years compared to 15 years in Oman and 12 years on the Great Barrier Reef.


Fishery Status:

This species is not protected or subject to fishery regulations. It is caught in the fish trap fishery, where it is the third most common parrotfish species
caught by weight (Nevill 2020). Interestingly Fishbase (Froese & Pauly 2019) cites this species as being typically uncommon. Examination of catch, also 
indicates the illegal use of spear guns and possibly the hand spearing of sleeping specimens at night.
 


Notes:

Fishers do not recognise both phases as the same species. The Creole name " kakatwa rouz" pertains to initial phase only.

    Hi, Neat post. There is an issue together with your web site in internet explorer, would test this? IE still is the market chief and a large section of people will miss your excellent writing due to this problem. Om bij SkyHills Casino te storten, word je beperkt tot 3 belangrijke casino betaalmethoden. Eerst kies je het bedrag om op je saldo te zetten en de bonus die je wil claimen. Daarna betaal je met een bankkaart, instant overschrijving of cryptomunten. Maar let er dus op dat de goksite verborgen kosten heeft. Dit nieuwe spel met een klassiek thema beschikt over vijf rollen, je vaardigheden te verbeteren en te zien of het geluk aan jouw kant staat. En er zijn extra zwembad belastingen en paard inzetkosten voor spelers die kunnen eten in de winst, waardoor het meer sociale. Спасибо за любую информацию!

  • Der Book of Ra Slot spielt im alten Ägypten und vermittelt das mit lebendig gestalteten Symbolen aus der Mythologie des Nil-Tals, aber dennoch spannendes Spiel. Dies stellt sicher, bei dem es darum geht. Während uns die vorherigen Teile der Cygnus-Reihe nach Ägypten und zu einem Vintage-Observatorium führten, spielt Cygnus 3 im antiken Rom. Weiße Säulen halten die Walzen vor dem Hintergrund eines riesigen Kolosseums unter Sternenhimmel an Ort und Stelle, an dem die Tierkreiszeichen vorbeiziehen. Wenn der Demomodus immer noch nicht startet, versuchen Sie, einen anderen Standort auf dem VPN-Server auszuwählen. About Us Contacts Policy Privacy Policy Sitemap Terms & Conditions Symbole bei einem Gewinn verschwinden von den Walzen und lösen einen Lawinenmechanismus aus, der sich wiederholt, solange Sie weitere Gewinne erzielen. Die Anzahl der Reihen und Gewinnmöglichkeiten nimmt jeweils zu und liegt bei maximal 8 Reihen mit 262.144 Möglichkeiten, Symbole zuzuordnen. Wilds und Multiplikatorsymbole können jederzeit landen.

    Die X-iter-Funktion in Cygnus 4 ermöglicht es den Spielern, Bonusfunktionen wie Bonus Hunt, Multiplier Pillar auf Level 3, Multiplier Wilds, Bonus und Super Bonus zu kaufen. Jede dieser Funktionen bietet unterschiedliche Vorteile, wie z. B. höhere Multiplikatoren oder direkten Zugang zu Freispielen. Entschlüsseln Sie die Geheimnisse des Universums und holen Sie sich mit dem Spielautomaten Cygnus 2 große Reichtümer. Dieser Spielautomat hat 6 Spalten, 4 Reihen und 4.096 Gewinnmöglichkeiten. Die herausragenden Funktionen sind das Rising Multiplier-Feature, das Avalanche-Feature und das Free Drops-Bonusspiel. Der aufregendste Teil ist, dass der maximale Gewinn 10-mal höher ist als beim Originalspiel.

  • Keratin lash lift and tint is an alternative to eyelash extensions and false eyelashes for long lasting curled lash effect as well as allowing the full extension of your natural eyelash. Whether you have done a DIY lash lift at home or you had a professional treatment, there is a possibility your lashes can turn out too curly. If you are here, it’s probably happened to you, and you’re wondering, “why is my lash lift too curly, and how to fix it?”   Lash lifts get too… A Keratin lash lift uses a Keratin-infused formula enriched with peptides. Keratin is the building block of all hair, a protein which forms the structure of hair, and as such it’s naturally present in the lashes. A Keratin lash lift supplements the naturally present Keratin and strengthens the lashes, re-shaping them from root to tip, but also improving their state along the way.
    https://jobs.njota.org/profiles/7219641-stephen-moran
    Use a stick to apply the adhesive on your lashes as you glue them on the lift pad. Wait 30 seconds for the adhesive to settle and then lift the lashes using the lash comb. Make sure they are evenly spaced and straight. Apply more adhesive if needed until they are all stuck down, then let dry. Yay! Youre getting free shipping! Unlike other chemical product, our lash lift and tint kit is specially formulated with high-quality and non-irritating ingredients, which will not harm the eyes and surrounding skin. (Warm Note): Take a skin test before first using, having someone’s assistance will be better if you are new. Sorry, this product is unavailable. Please choose a different combination. Sorry, this product is unavailable. Please choose a different combination. $27.94 Let’s cut to the chase ― the answer to your crooked and straight lashes is a lash lift and tint.
