Maturity: L m   ?   range ? - ? cm
Max length : 9.0 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 2272 )

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 7; Dorsal soft rays (total): 28-32; Anal spines : 1; Anal soft rays : 27 - 30.

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Inhabits upper portions of outer reef slopes (Ref. 1602 ). Benthopelagic (Ref. 58302 ). Hovers above the bottom, facing the current to feed on zooplankton, copepods, and crustacean larvae. Several individuals may share the same hole (especially juveniles). Has a habit of flicking its pennant-like first dorsal fin back and forth (Ref. 1602 , 48637 ). Minimum depth reported taken from Ref. 128797. Monogamous (Ref. 52884 ).

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

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

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 24.7 - 28.8, mean 27.6 °C (based on 554 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5625   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.1   ±0.30 se; based on food items. Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100). Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 129 [65, 228] mg/100g; Iron = 0.861 [0.502, 1.488] mg/100g; Protein = 17.9 [16.7, 19.0] %; Omega3 = 0.104 [0.056, 0.191] g/100g; Selenium = 30.5 [13.3, 66.2] μg/100g; VitaminA = 240 [74, 814] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.11 [1.38, 3.03] mg/100g (wet weight);
