Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale): 8; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 9; Spine anali 2; Raggi anali molli: 8. Olive brown with irregular dark spots and streaks; speckled fins; normally with a dark line from eye to origin of LL and stripe from eye to angle of preopercle (Ref. 4329, 48635). Developed gill rakers 5-7. A distinctive small white spot centrally at base of caudal fin (Ref. 48635).

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Adults occur inshore (Ref. 7300). Found among rubble of reef flats and 'dead' reefs (Ref. 1602, 58302). Benthic and benthopelagic (Ref. 58302). Secretive (Ref. 48635), nocturnal species (Ref. 7300). Eggs are incubated orally (Ref. 205). Minimum depth reported taken from Ref. 57178.

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturità | Riproduzione | Deposizione | Uova | Fecundity | Larve

Displays obligate monogamy where a one-to-one pair is established irrespective of resource abundance (Ref. 52884).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 25.2 - 29.3, mean 28.3 (based on 2622 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.6250   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01479 (0.00690 - 0.03171), b=3.09 (2.91 - 3.27), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.3   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
