Short description Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría

Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 71; Radios blandos anales: 57; Vértebra: 41. This species is characterized by the following characters: head and predorsal length short, 24.2 and 31.1% SL, respectively; ventral fins long, 27.2% SL; scale band on cheeks with 2 rows of scales on lower cheek; upper preopercular pore absent, outer pseudoclasper small, anterior inner pseudoclasper ridge-like, bent backwards, anteriorly connected to outer pseudoclasper; posterior inner pseudoclasper much larger than the anterior one; otolith with separated colliculi (Ref. 55786).

This species is known from a single male specimen collected over sand and rock covered with calcareous algae and not on coral reefs (Ref. 55786).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5078 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

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