Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range Ecology

Marine; reef-associated; depth range 5 - 50 m (Ref. 90102 ), usually 5 - 40 m (Ref. 27115 ). Tropical; 25°C - 28°C (Ref. 27115 )

Distribution Countries | FAO areas | Ecosystems | Occurrences | Point map | Introductions | Faunafri

Indo-West Pacific: western Indian Ocean to Fiji. Questionable record from Indonesia (Ref. 8631 ).

Size / Weight / Age

Maturity: L m   ?   range ? - ? cm
Max length : 8.0 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 11441 )

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Only the first dorsal soft ray prolonged in adults; penultimate dorsal soft ray of males 1.6-2.0 in HL; a single short dark stripe beneath pectoral fin (Ref. 41634 ).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Inhabits outer reef slopes, over rubble, algae, or coral (Ref. 9710 ). Occurs in small groups of mix sexes but females outnumber males greatly (Ref. 48636 ). Swim close to the bottom and females swim in small groups. Males swim around them and often hurry from one area to another where there are groups of females. Some juveniles are secretive and often single or small groups amongst the rubble (Ref. 48636 ).

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

Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205 ).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 26.2 - 29.1, mean 28.2 °C (based on 1868 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00955 (0.00456 - 0.02002), b=3.06 (2.89 - 3.23), 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 = 138 [79, 283] mg/100g; Iron = 1.06 [0.60, 2.06] mg/100g; Protein = 18.1 [15.2, 20.3] %; Omega3 = 0.178 [0.099, 0.313] g/100g; Selenium = 24.9 [13.0, 50.2] μg/100g; VitaminA = 242 [72, 905] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.04 [1.31, 3.24] mg/100g (wet weight);
