Short description

Dorsal spines (total): 7; Dorsal soft rays (total): 10; Anal spines: 1; Anal soft rays: 8. This species is distinguished by the following characters: interorbital broad, with a slight depression between eyes; predorsal scales covered with ctenoid scales to above mideye, and a small naked patch immediately before first dorsal fin; scales absent immediately behind eye before transverse postocular papilla row; prepelvic area partly scaled immediately before pelvic origin, in 2-8 rows; usually no opercular scales, but rarely 1-5 small scales dorsally; no scales on; usually D2 I,10, A I,8, pectoral rays 19; transverse pattern of sensory papilla rows on cheek; pelvic fins connected to form a plate, but no interspinal membrane, the fifth ray with multiple branches, length about 75-80% of length of fourth ray; head and body brown with a distinct large black blotch at anterior base of first dorsal fin, and in life, head and body with very thin blue bands; no bands dorsally on caudal fin; mouth very oblique, jaws form an angle for 55°-60° with body axis (Ref. 85603).

Inhabits reef crevices (Ref. 90102).

Estimates of some properties based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82805)
PD₅₀ = 0.5000 many relatives (e.g. carps) 0.5 - 2.0 few relatives (e.g. lungfishes)

Trophic Level (Ref. 69278)
3.2 ±0.3 se; Based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilience (Ref. 69278)
High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.)

Vulnerability (Ref. 59153)
Low vulnerability (10 of 100)

Price category (Ref. 80766)
Very high
