Kurzbeschreibung Morphologie | Morphometrie

Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt): 18-19; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 4. This species is distinguished by the following characters: pectoral fin-rays 10-11; dorsal-fin rays 18-19; body rings 15-16 + 13 or total 46-47; snout length 2.8-3.2 in HL; lateral trunk ridge ending on penultimate trunk ring; absence of spine-like projections on principle tail ridges; when alive, colour generally pinkish red (Ref. 116662).

Occurs in exposed coral reef slopes and generally encountered solitarily or in pairs at depths of about 10-25 m. It exhibits highly effective camouflage with regards to its shape and colour, closely matching an unidentified, short tubular sponge among which this fish is invariably found (Ref. 116662).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5039 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref. 120179): hoch, Verdopplung der Population dauert weniger als 15 Monate. (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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