Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Adults inhabit clear coastal reef flats, often in exposed habitats, common in outer intertidal reef flats and surge-swept seaward reef; usually where algal growth is prolific (Ref. 48636 ). They enter small holes, with just its head protruding. They feed on algae and associated detritus and small invertebrates. 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 ). Minimum depth of 0 m reported from Ref. 90102.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 25.4 - 29.3, mean 28.5 °C (based on 2491 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5020   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00741 (0.00335 - 0.01640), b=3.02 (2.83 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  2.5   ±0.19 se; based on food items. 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). Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 129 [63, 209] mg/100g; Iron = 0.731 [0.420, 1.245] mg/100g; Protein = 18.1 [16.9, 19.2] %; Omega3 = 0.0767 [, ] g/100g; Selenium = 19.1 [9.3, 41.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 127 [35, 464] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.21 [1.47, 3.17] mg/100g (wet weight);
