Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 13 - 14; Dorsal soft rays (total): 22-25; Anal spines : 3; Anal soft rays : 17 - 18. Overall color is brownish yellow with vertical rows of spots forming bands on the upper portions of the sides. A black-edged orange bar runs across the eye. The posterior edge of the caudal fin is transparent. Caudal peduncle is bright orange (Ref. 4855 ). Snout length 2.7-4.1 in HL. Body depth 1.6-1.8 in SL (Ref. 90102 ).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Common in coral rich areas and clear waters of lagoon and seaward reefs. Sometimes found on outer subtidal reef flats (Ref. 1602 ). Juveniles secretive (Ref. 48636 ). Feed on filamentous algae, corals, and benthic invertebrates. Often in pairs during breeding (Ref. 205 ), monogamous (Ref. 52884 ). Oviparous (Ref. 205 ). Occasionally hybridize with C. pelewensis in the southern part of its range (Ref. 9710 ). Minimum depth reported taken from Ref. 128797.

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae

Distinct pairing (Ref. 205 ). Monogamous mating is observed as both obligate and social (Ref. 52884 ).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 26 - 28.9, mean 27.8 °C (based on 344 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02291 (0.01133 - 0.04632), b=3.00 (2.83 - 3.17), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.4   ±0.6 se; based on diet studies. 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). Price category (Ref. 80766 ):   Unknown . Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 130 [66, 208] mg/100g; Iron = 0.967 [0.557, 1.662] mg/100g; Protein = 18.6 [17.4, 19.8] %; Omega3 = 0.129 [0.073, 0.224] g/100g; Selenium = 36.7 [18.9, 71.1] μg/100g; VitaminA = 49.2 [14.2, 174.1] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.65 [1.09, 2.43] mg/100g (wet weight);
