Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

This species is distinguished by having the following characters: with a frontal ridge that slopes variably (steeply, and with a ridge, to gradually, without a ridge) into the interorbital trench; postorbital trenches may be steep or shallow sided; posterior nasal opening adnate to eye; second spine of first dorsal fin occasionally elongate, third spine is not; eight or more elements in the second dorsal; fifth pelvic fin ray branched multiple times dichotomously, appearing bushy; 18 or more pectoral rays; scales on head; body color brown-red with five diffuse white vertical bars, between mid-peduncle to just anterior to origin of first dorsal; facial pattern with two white bars under orbit, and one irregular white bar over vertical limb of the preopercle; a pair of thin fleshy lappets, half a pupil width apart, a quarter pupil width behind the frontal ridge, on either side of dorsal midline of the nape; epibranch of the first gill arch lacks gill rakers (Ref.57688).

Collected over coral reef flats rising above the rubble-sandy bottom (Ref. 57688).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 24.7 - 29.1, mean 27.5 (based on 537 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01023 (0.00477 - 0.02194), b=3.02 (2.84 - 3.20), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

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).
