Issue
Issue on validity of subspecies: subspecies considered as valid in FB, elevated to species rank as Oxyporhamphus micropterus (Valenciennes, 1847) in Eschmeyer (CofF ver. Mar. 2011: Ref. 86697). Please send references, or more studies are needed.
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
marinhas; oceanódromo (Ref. 51243); intervalo de profundidade 0 - 1 m (Ref. 58302). Tropical; 20°N - 20°S
Indo-Pacific: East Africa to Tonga, north to southern Japan (Ref. 33390). Eastern Pacific: Mexico to Peru (Ref. 9306). Replaced in the Atlantic by Oxyporhamphus similis.
Comprimento de primeira maturação / Tamanho / Peso / Idade
Maturity: Lm 12.8, range 13 - 13 cm
Max length : 18.5 cm SL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 9843)
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 0; Raios dorsais (total) : 13 - 15; Espinhos anais: 0; Raios anais : 13 - 16; Vértebras: 47 - 50. Adults with a single large chamber to the swim bladder. Average number of gill rakers on the first arch, 30.7; predorsal scales, 31.1 on the average. Branchiostegal rays: 11-14 (Ref. 36576).
A true oceanic species, not bound to coastal waters at any period of its life (Ref. 9843).This species is the only halfbeak which doesn't have an extended lower jaw at the adult phase (Ref. 9306). Oviparous, with planktonic eggs and larvae (Ref. 36576).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 26.3 - 29.2, mean 27.9 °C (based on 25608 cells).
Índice de diversidade filogenética (Ref.

50 = 0.7500 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00331 (0.00150 - 0.00733), b=3.08 (2.90 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
