Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 4; Dorsal soft rays (total): 8; Anal spines: 0; Anal soft rays: 7. Unbranched infraorbital canal, very short upward and downward branches of lateral line. Anal fin dark with many darker spots (Ref. 37424). First dorsal spine is extended with a filament in males. This species has double series of small pearly spots along lower sides (Ref. 48636).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Inhabits coastal bays and estuaries (Ref. 48636), over sand, mud, or dead coral rubble of lagoons and outer reef slopes. Feeds mainly on small benthic invertebrates. Usually buried in substrate. Occurs in small groups (Ref. 48636). May also be solitary (Ref. 90102).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 24.7 - 28.9, mean 27.7 °C (based on 300 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5039   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00794 (0.00354 - 0.01782), b=2.82 (2.64 - 3.00), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.5   ±0.37 se; based on food items.
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 143 [75, 232] mg/100g ; Iron = 0.808 [0.483, 1.342] mg/100g ; Protein = 18.5 [17.4, 19.5] % ; Omega3 = 0.11 [0.06, 0.19] g/100g ; Selenium = 28.3 [13.6, 58.7] μg/100g ; VitaminA = 120 [40, 351] μg/100g ; Zinc = 1.86 [1.24, 2.67] mg/100g (wet weight);
