Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 8 - 9; Dorsal soft rays (total): 10 - 12; Anal spines: 1; Anal soft rays: 12; Vertebrae: 29 - 30. This species is distinguished among southeastern Hypseleotris except H. galii, H. acropinna by the following set of characters: elongated rays in posterior portions of second dorsal, anal fins with fin tips extending along length of caudal peduncle in adult males; median fins having distal bands of pale orange in mature males. It is distinguished from H. galii by absence of dark pigment around genital papillae in females (vs. prominent dark spot ventrally surrounding genital papilla) and from H. acropinna by generally having 33-34 lateral scales (vs. 31-33) (Ref. 128732).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = No PD50 data   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00537 (0.00260 - 0.01111), b=3.09 (2.90 - 3.28), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.1   ±0.2 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
