Size / Weight / Age

Maturity: L m   ?   range ? - ? cm
Max length : 12.0 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 9823 )

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 11; Dorsal soft rays (total): 8-9; Anal spines : 3; Anal soft rays : 9. Large oval black spot on caudal peduncle just above lateral line (Ref. 4392 ). A closely related undescribed species occurs in west and central Pacific; differs in color, greatest between nuptial males (Ref. 48636 ).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Occurs over rubble or low patch reefs in areas of current (Ref. 9823 ); also on reef edges and around bommies with rubble zones (Ref. 48636 ); often in moderately large groups and mixed sex during feeding on zooplankton well above the substrate. Males often display to each other (Ref. 48636 ). Reported to be associated with the mushroom coral Heliofungia actiniformis (Ref. 91291 ). Feeds on zooplankton in the water column (Ref. 9823 ).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 26.3 - 29.3, mean 28.5 °C (based on 2345 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01585 (0.00707 - 0.03555), b=2.95 (2.76 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.4   ±0.45 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 = 99.2 [57.4, 186.1] mg/100g; Iron = 0.867 [0.498, 1.658] mg/100g; Protein = 18.2 [15.3, 20.4] %; Omega3 = 0.162 [0.095, 0.273] g/100g; Selenium = 22.6 [12.7, 44.7] μg/100g; VitaminA = 256 [76, 929] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.75 [1.17, 2.77] mg/100g (wet weight);
