Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 9; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 11; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 9; Vertebre: 25. Body and head orange; pale yellowish orange ventrally; head with 1-4 dark horizontal lines. Anterior dorsal rays not prolonged as filaments. Posterior soft portions of dorsal and anal fins angular. Predorsal scales 5. Lateral line interrupted (Ref. 2139). Seven violet to red stripes on body in life, the upper five extending full length of body; caudal fin of adult males emarginate (Ref. 41634).

Biology unknown (Ref. 9710). Inhabits coastal and offshore reefs, rubble areas and low-profile coral patches (Ref. 90102). Found in sheltered reefs with rich coral and algae mix along upper parts of slopes. Occurs in small groups of mix sexes but females outnumber males greatly (Ref. 48636). Males attract females by flashing neon-like colors an hour before sunset (true for most Paracheilinus (Ref. 90102).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 28 - 29, mean 28.5 °C (based on 140 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00955 (0.00456 - 0.02002), b=3.06 (2.89 - 3.23), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.4 ±0.45 se; based on food items.

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).
