Greene, who in addition to collecting the type specimens, has contributed extensively towards the study and exploration of coral-reef diversity (particularly on MCEs); noun in apposition..

Max length : 7.4 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 121918); 6.0 cm SL (female)

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 11; Dorsal soft rays (total): 9; Anal spines: 3; Anal soft rays: 9; Vertebrae: 25. This species is distinguished from all its congeners by the following set of characters: lateral line with 23-26 pored scales with 16-17 in the dorsoanterior series and 7-9 in the posterior peduncular series; pelvic fins are very long, 56.5-70.0% SL and often reaching past anal-fin terminus in males. Colouration: anterior first to second interspinous membrane spaces of dorsal fin with a metallic blue spot; a large black spot two-thirds distance from dorsal-fin origin; distal third of caudal fin with black margin, iridescent in life (Ref. 121918).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

This species occurs in MCE habitats, on rubble patch reefs (Ref. 121918).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = No PD50 data   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01585 (0.00707 - 0.03555), b=2.95 (2.76 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.3   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
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).
