Short description Κλείδες προσδιορισμού | Μορφολογία | Μορφομετρία

Ραχιαίες άκανθες (συνολικά) : 7; Μαλακές ραχιαίες ακτίνες (συνολικά) : 9; Εδρικές άκανθες: 1; Μαλακές εδρικές ακτίνες: 8. This species is distinguished from its congeners by the following characters: a cephalic sensory-canal pore pattern lacking only IT pore (pattern 2), AITO pore small and opening dorsally; a dorsal/anal fin-ray formula of 9/8; unbranched pectoral-fin rays 16 or 17 (usually 17); fifth pelvic-fin ray 5-17% of fourth ray; body depth 18-23% SL. Colouration: pectoral-fin base without dark occipital spots or dark spots; entire iris of eye is dark reddish, pupil surrounded by a white ring, dorsal side of eye next to interorbital area has a short white bar not visible laterally; a two-part, black, basicaudal spot over preural centrum made up of a short, wedge-like, triangular front section connecting to a short, wide bar over end of hypural plate, and with a yellow spot over nexus; caudal fin is crossed by thin, red, diagonal bars, pale when preserved (Ref. 127576).

Βιολογία     Γλωσσάρι (π.χ. epibenthic)

Collected from consolidated coral growth rising 2 m off sand and silt bottom, in 9-15 m depth; also from turbid waters on fine-sand and coral-rubble bottom (Ref. 127576).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01023 (0.00477 - 0.02194), b=3.02 (2.84 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Τροφικό Επίπεδο (Ref. 69278):  3.0   ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Ελαστικότητα (Ref. 120179):  Υψηλό, ελάχιστος χρόνος για διπλασιασμό πληθυσμού < 15 μήνες (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
