Краткое описание
морфология | морфометрия
колючие лучи спинного плавника (общее число): 11; членистые (мягкие) лучи спинного плавника (общее число): 16-17; колючие лучи анального плавника 3; членистые (мягкие) лучи анального плавника: 14 - 16. Black spot on upper half of dorsal fin from sixth or seventh to ninth spines. Males have long, upcurved extension of maxillary bone marked with black bands (Ref. 26938). Females appear to lack the long double-banded maxilla, and there is only a single blackish band at the corner of the mouth (Ref. 13442).
Inhabits sandy bottoms near coral reefs (Ref. 9710). Feeds on gastropods, crabs and fishes (Ref. 13628). Monogamous (Ref. 52884). Oviparous, mouthbrooding by males (Ref. 205).
Life cycle and mating behavior
половая зрелость | размножение | нерест | икра | Fecundity | личинки
Displays facultative monogamy where males are constrained to mate with a single female due to resource limitation (Ref. 52884). Males incubate the eggs in the mouth (Ref. 205).
