Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 11 - 13; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 13 - 15; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 14 - 17. Y-shaped mark on pectoral fin base (Ref. 559).
Adults occur solitary or in small groups on boulder habitats (Ref. 90102) sitting on rock and living coral (Ref. 9710) in shallow coastal reefs. Common species on coastal and inner reef crests with rich coral growth (Ref. 48636). Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 26.3 - 29.3, mean 28.6 °C (based on 1844 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00776 (0.00356 - 0.01695), b=3.00 (2.81 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
