Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Upper lip widest at middle; no papillae in central part of disk (Ref. 26938).
Lives in close association with the sea urchin Echinometra mainly for protection. Feeds primarily on benthic crustaceans like amphipods, but harpacticoid copepods and ostracods are also eaten (Ref. 33548).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5625 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00617 (0.00250 - 0.01521), b=3.15 (2.94 - 3.36), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.

Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.3 ±0.45 se; based on food items.
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
