Etymology: Lutjanus: Malay, ikan lutjan, name of a fish; alexandrei: The specific name honors the pioneer Brazilian naturalist Alexandre Rodrigues Ferreira (1756–1815), whose many years of field work in Brazil during the late 18th Century remain underrecognized due to the confiscation of his and others’ collections at Lisb.
Eponymy: Alexandre Rodrigues Ferreira (1756–1815) was an early Brazilian naturalist. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Size / Weight / Age
Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 33.1 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 100833); max. published weight: 199.90 g (Ref. 122735)
Max length : 33.1 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 100833); max. published weight: 199.90 g (Ref. 122735)
Adult standard length is greater 20 cm (Ref. 57982). Additional collections may show an even broader distributional range for this species, as was the case with 48 other poorly known reef-fish species in the southwestern Atlantic (Ref. 57982).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804) |
PD50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. |
| Bayesian length-weight | a=0.01514 (0.01347 - 0.01700), b=2.96 (2.94 - 2.98), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245). |
|
Trophic level (Ref. 69278) |
3.8 ±0.7 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives |
| Generation time | 4.6 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies. |
|
Resilience (Ref. 120179) |
Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (K=0.2;). |
