Comments: A single specimen (CAS 29409, 66.1 mm SL) from the Philippines has relatively long pectoral fins (length 75.1 % of SL), the posterior tip of which extending slightly beyond vertical through the caudal-fin base. This is in contrast, with typical specimens of D. brachypterus which possess relatively short pectoral fin (length 47.0-67.8 % of SL) and the posterior tip not reaching the caudal-fin base. However, because there are no other noticeable differences found between this specimen and typical D. brachypterus, the former is regarded as aberrant (Ref. 116325). Also Ref. 1602, 2334, 90102.

Descrição breve Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria

Espinhos dorsais (total) : 13; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 9 - 10; Espinhos anais: 3; Raios anais moles: 5 - 6. Body reddish with vague broad bars; paired fins with bars; median fins with small dark spots (Ref. 4313). Mid-dorsal spines shorter than body depth (Ref. 37816).

Biologia     Glossário (ex. epibenthic)

Common in reef flats and shallow lagoons, in areas with weed-covered rocks on sandy substrates. Adults often found on sponges and juveniles are sometimes found in small aggregations on remote bommies with 10 or so individuals (Ref. 48635). Nocturnal. Feeds on small crustaceans (Ref. 37816).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturities | Reprodução | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | Larvas

Distinct pairing (Ref. 205). Females possess specialized ovarian structures including stalk-like ovigerous lamellae and secretory epithelia (Ref. 32832).
