Etymology:
Micrognathus:
Greek, mikros = small + greek, gnathos = jaw (Ref.

)
.

Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecology
Marine; reef-associated; depth range 1 - 21 m (Ref.
52313
). Subtropical; 32°N - 33°S
Western Atlantic: Bermuda and the Bahamas to Santa Catarina, Brazil (Ref.
57756
); including lower east Florida coast but absent from the Gulf of Mexico except for a single record from Cayo Arcas, Mexico. Dawson (1982) noted that there are two distinct color patterns of this species with no definite intergrades. Some authors are of the opinion that these color extremes represent two different species and should this be true, Dawson stated that Kaup's
vittatus
has priority over
ensenadae
with AMNH 7792 documenting the Bermuda occurrence of
Micrognathus vittatus
.

Short description
Morphology

Morphometrics
Dorsal
soft rays
(total): 19-21;
Anal
soft rays
: 1 - 3. Possess nine (9) different color phases. Similar to
Halicampus zavorensis
, it has a short snout (2.7-3.7 in HL) with a continuous and essentially linear median dorsal ridges. Different with
H. zavorensis
in having 17-18 trunk ridges (vs. 14); 32 - 35 tail rings (vs. 36 - 37); and having 18 - 22 dorsal-fin rays (vs. 22 - 23) (Ref.
52313
).
Occurs in pockets of coral rubble (low coral growth on white sand bottom), usually in the vicinity of sea fans (Ref.
5521
,
7251
,
9710
). Ovoviviparous (Ref.
205
). The male carries the eggs in a brood pouch which is found under the tail (Ref.
205
).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804
): PD
50
= 0.5039 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00037 (0.00016 - 0.00085), b=3.18 (2.99 - 3.37), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.

).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278
): 3.3 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
