Cheilodipterus
species. That enables them to swim about more freely (Ref.
48635
).
Found in small aggregates among or near mounds of branching corals such as
Porites cylindrica
or
P. nigrescens
(Ref.
1602
). Nocturnal species (Ref.
7300
). Has been reared in captivity (Ref.
35404
).
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201
): 26.6 - 29.3, mean 28.7 °C (based on 2141 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804
): PD
50
= 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00933 (0.00519 - 0.01678), b=3.06 (2.90 - 3.22), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref.

).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278
): 3.5 ±0.50 se; based on food items.
Resilience (Ref.
