Length at first maturity / Size / Gewicht / Alter
Maturity: Lm 8.5 range ? - ? cm
Max length : 25.0 cm TL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 129178); common length : 15.0 cm TL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 6113)
Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 8; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 12 - 14; Afterflossenstacheln: 3; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 11. Color pattern remains similar with growth with terminal males becoming gaudier than primary males (Ref. 37816). Pale green with 6 dark bars, last two as saddles over the tail. Head with pink bands radiating from eye in large adults (Ref. 48636).
Occurs in shallow lagoon and seaward reefs, slopes and along drop-offs to moderate depths. Occurs in small, loose groups (Ref. 48636). Feeds on benthic and planktonic crustaceans, small fishes, and foraminiferans.

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00955 (0.00610 - 0.01496), b=3.05 (2.92 - 3.18), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.5 ±0.37 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 1.1 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1
growth studies.
Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref.
