Abstract

This widely distributed, reef-associated species is naturally uncommon in much of its range. It is a minor component of subsistence fisheries in parts of its range, but declines have not been detected. It is listed as Least Concern with a recommendation to improve monitoring of fished populations, especially in areas where pressure is expected to increase in the future, and to protect spawning aggregations. The change in status from the previous assessment reflects an improved application of the Red List categories and criteria, as well as a better understanding of available data.
