Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Found inshore on reefs (Ref. 7300 ) but has been recorded to a depth of 130 m (Ref. 9563 ). Adults found with sponges or ascidians (Ref. 48635 ). Oviparous. Eggs are attached to each other by a single, flattened, acellular filament and are brooded in a hollow behind the left pectoral fin (Ref. 6773 ). Mimics sponges with its spots that resembles pores of sponges (Ref 90102).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 14.8 - 28.8, mean 26.1 °C (based on 1242 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5312   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01995 (0.00906 - 0.04395), b=3.01 (2.83 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.7   ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Fec assumed to be > 10,000). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
