Short description आकृति विज्ञान | मौरफोमैटरिक्स

पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण): 15 - 17; पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण): 9-12; गुदा कांटा 3; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 8 - 9. Diagnosis: 3 distinct spots on flank (Ref. 47113, 57549). Supra-pectoral spot about 1.5 times supra-anal spot and in contact with the upper lateral line; supra-anal spot separate from upper lateral line; no narrow black submarginal band in dorsal fin (Ref. 57549). Male breeding coloration: black ventral body and blue to white blaze on dorsum above lateral line (Ref. 47113, 57549), until posterior end of dorsal fin and continuing onto upper margin of caudal fin (Ref. 57549). 15-18 gill-rakers; 27 dorsal rays in total; caudal peduncle length 5.9 times in SL; caudal peduncle depth 8.1 times in SL (Ref. 47113). Female C. trewavasae cannot be reliably distinguished from those of C. verduyni (ref. 57549).

Inhabits the sand/rock interface (Ref. 47113, 57549) where sand and rocks are found in almost equal proportions (Ref. 47113). Territorial males construct a bower next to a rock, under which spawning takes place; females normally occur in small groups rarely numbering more than 10 individuals and remain close to the bottom (Ref. 57549). Mouthbrooding females remain closer to the bottom than foraging females and sometimes form small groups (Ref. 47113). Both males and females feed on plankton in the water column near the bottom and on benthic invertebrates (Ref. 57549).

Estimates based on models

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01514 (0.00700 - 0.03275), b=2.97 (2.80 - 3.14), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.4 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

लौटाव (Ref. 120179): ऊंचा, न्यूनतम जनसंख्या दुगनी समय अवलागत 15 महीने। (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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