Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 7; Dorsal soft rays (total): 9; Anal spines : 2; Anal soft rays : 8. Characterized by having dorsal fin rays VI-I, 9; anal fin rays II,8; pectoral fin rays 12; pelvic fin rays I, 5; pored lateral line scales 25; predorsal scales 6; circumpeduncular scales 12; large canine-like teeth on jaws; preopercular margin serrated (Ref. 93839 ).; juveniles have a large black blotch on the caudal peduncle which becomes diffuse with age. Adults resemble adults of C. artus , but have wider stripes with darker interspace (Ref. 37816 ); characterized further by pale grey color; eight red-brown stripes on side, caudal fin base whitish; dark caudal fin margins; greatest depth of body 3.1-3.8 in SL (Ref. 90102 ).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Common in outer reef slopes in 4-30 m depth; in caves and ledges of clear lagoon and seaward reefs from 0.5 to at least 40 m, generally hovering solitarily in midwater (Ref. 1602 ). Adults usually in pairs or small groups comprising several pairs; juveniles solitary or small groups (Ref. 48635 ). Feeds primarily on small fishes (Ref. 9710 ). Sexual maturity reached at about 8 cm. Maximum depth reported taken from Ref. 128797.

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

Mouthbrooders (Ref. 240 ). Distinct pairing during courtship and spawning (Ref. 205 ). 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 ): 24.7 - 29, mean 27.8 °C (based on 1114 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01175 (0.00699 - 0.01974), b=3.19 (3.05 - 3.33), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  4.1   ±0.61 se; based on food items. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (15 of 100). Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 66.1 [33.7, 114.0] mg/100g; Iron = 0.638 [0.370, 1.043] mg/100g; Protein = 19 [18, 20] %; Omega3 = 0.124 [0.076, 0.197] g/100g; Selenium = 29.8 [17.0, 56.1] μg/100g; VitaminA = 59.1 [17.9, 189.2] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.02 [0.70, 1.49] mg/100g (wet weight);
