adonis will not be a easy one but here is some info from PLC

"It is probable that males are more heavily spined over the whole body, including the interopercular region, although this species is so extremely spiny that it would be necessary to compare a number of adult specimens (which very few people have the space for).

Males are also probably more aggressive and active in territorial defence, but this is a particularly combative species regardless of gender.

In such a large species, examination of the genital area is the easiest method of determination."
