Etymology: Doboatherina: Name from 'Dobo', the local name of atherinid fishes in Mie Prefecture, Japan, and 'Atherina', the name of type genus of Atherinidae. ;   aetholepis: Named for its scales with long spatular outgrowth posteriorly along the dorsal midline anterior to the second dorsal fin. .

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 5 - 8; Dorsal soft rays (total): 9-11; Anal spines : 12-14; Vertebrae : 38 - 42. This species is distinguished by the following combination of characters: a long spatular outgrowth on the posterior margin of most predorsal and interdorsal scales; ascending process of premaxilla is short and blunt, its height about two times maximum width, and shorter than horizontal length of premaxilla, its height about 2/5 to 1/2 of the horizontal length; premaxilla with a single lateral process; palatine with teeth; head rather large, HL 25-31% SL; upper jaw length 8.4-11% SL and 32-41% HL; midlateral band rather wide, width about 3/5-4/5 of width of midlateral scale, and its lower margin reaching to lower margin of midlateral scale row at the level of anal-fin origin (width of midlateral band 17-30% of body depth and 47-75% of caudal peduncle depth at the level of anal-fin origin. Colour of head and body faintly greenish- tan dorsally, brilliant silver laterally; the midlateral band glossy indigo blue, upper edge with a greenish-white line; with small black dots ventrolaterally on body; snout dusky; a narrow black band along the anal-fin base; rays of second dorsal, caudal, and pectoral fins are fringed with dark dots; fin membranes hyaline (Ref. 121273 ).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Adults occur usually along the open coast; rarely seen in lagoons or inner parts of bays and inlets (Ref. 44256 ).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 28 - 29.1, mean 28.5 °C (based on 74 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5005   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00562 (0.00244 - 0.01296), b=3.11 (2.91 - 3.31), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.2   ±0.4 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).
