Diagnosis: Dorsal fin XII, 16, membrane attached to caudal fin, with deep notch above last spine, first spine equal to second; anal fin II, 17; pectoral rays 15; pelvic fin I, 4; caudal fin procurrent rays 10-14. Vertebrae 10 + 22. LL, without scales but with scalelike flaps; LL tubes 0-4, canal ends on caudal-fin base. Lower lip crenulated mesially, plicate laterally. Upper lip crenulae 48-53. Cephalic pore system complex; midsnout pores present. Cirri, supraorbital 11-12, nasal 10-17; nuchal 40-44, in 2 groups. Overall brown, eye with white spot below and black spot behind, body with broad irregular bars pale grey or brown, and brown spots posteriorly (Ref. 529, 90102).

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Facultative air-breathing in the genus (Ref. 126274); Known only from three type specimens collected in the surge zone among large boulders at the Baton Is., Philippines. Probably oviparous (Ref. 205). Eggs are demersal and adhesive based on family traits (Ref. 205).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturità | Riproduzione | Deposizione | Uova | Fecundity | Larve

Oviparous, distinct pairing (Ref. 205). Urogenital orifice of male genital papilla at the distal tip of an unbranched slender filament on a fleshy swelling behind anus; elongated testes with length equals 2 - 3 times the width (Ref. 529).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01072 (0.00480 - 0.02393), b=3.01 (2.82 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  2.0   ±0.00 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. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
