Size / Weight / Age

Maturity: L m   ?   range ? - ? cm
Max length : 16.0 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 90102 )

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 3 - 5; Dorsal soft rays (total): 29-34; Anal spines : 1-2; Anal soft rays : 19 - 20; Vertebrae : 24. Preopercular serrae 30-58. H. cuniculus is variable in coloration, ranging from pale olive brown to yellowish or light greenish or a mixture with some geographic variation (Ref. 37816 ). Greatest depth of body 5.1-6.3 in SL (Ref. 90102 ).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Inhabits muddy to rubble or rubble-sand areas of outer reef slopes. Observed a meter above the substrate and retreats to a burrow when threatened. Stomach contents consist of calanoid copepods (58% by volume), larvaceans (20%), siphonophores (20%), and fish eggs (2%) (Ref. 8991 ). Sometimes in loose groups (Ref. 48635 ).

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

Displays obligate monogamy where a one-to-one pair is established irrespective of resource abundance (Ref. 52884 ).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 20.2 - 27.9, mean 25.4 °C (based on 282 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5001   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00537 (0.00236 - 0.01221), b=3.03 (2.82 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.4   ±0.0 se; based on diet studies. Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100). Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 95.1 [50.6, 151.4] mg/100g; Iron = 0.765 [0.471, 1.261] mg/100g; Protein = 17.7 [15.4, 19.7] %; Omega3 = 0.108 [0.063, 0.188] g/100g; Selenium = 34.5 [17.8, 71.3] μg/100g; VitaminA = 166 [60, 491] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.48 [1.00, 2.04] mg/100g (wet weight);
