Short description Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri

Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 4; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 26; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 2; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 15. White with a pair of black stripes on upper head and body, the dorsalmost extending onto basal portion of dorsal fin. Segmented caudal rays 11; in adult males, outer lobes of caudal fin moderately elongated; body depth about 4.6 in SL. Maximum size to 6.5 cm TL (Ref. 90102).

Adults are found in sheltered coastal, lagoon, and outer reefs in 1-10 m; solitary or in pairs (Ref. 90102). Collected from a depth of 10 m (Ref. 7401). Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 28.5 - 29.2, mean 28.9 °C (based on 108 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00575 (0.00253 - 0.01308), b=3.06 (2.86 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Hög, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid mindre än 15 månader (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
