Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 7; Dorsal soft rays (total): 9; Anal spines: 1; Anal soft rays: 8; Vertebrae: 26. This species is distinct with the following set of characters: D VI + I, 9; A I, 8; with some pectoral-fin rays branched; fifth segmented pelvic-fin ray is lacking; cephalic sensory-pore system pattern 1; non-fimbriate male genital papilla; dark bars or saddles 12-13 on trunk from origin of spinous dorsal fin to mid peduncular spot, not extending below midline (except in small juveniles); pectoral-fin base with a prominent circular dark spot dorsally (sometimes with additional small diffuse spot ventrally) (Ref. 59013).

Specimens were collected from tidal pools, lagoon patch reefs and reef slopes at depths from about 0.3 to at least 30 m (Ref. 59013). Benthic, also found in coral and rock reefs (Ref. 75154).

Estimates of some properties based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82805): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00891 (0.00412 - 0.01928), b=3.08 (2.91 - 3.25), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic Level (Ref. 69278): 3.0 ±0.3 se; Based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilience (Ref. 69278): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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