synonymy Chaetodon labiatus;
Although C. calendula inhabits relatively deep water (to ca. 130 m depth) on the NW shelf, the population at the northeastern extreme of the distributional range inhabits shallower water (ca. 20 m depth), due to the decreasing maximum depth of shallow coastal waters off northern Australia, including Torres Strait and adjacent areas. Such a shift in habitat depth allows an overlap in the depth ranges of C. calendula and C. chrysozonus, thereby driving hybridization between the two closely related species in that area. |
