Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 7; Dorsal soft rays (total): 7-8; Anal spines: 1; Anal soft rays: 8 - 9. Diagnosis: frontal ridge behind the orbits slopes steeply into a wide interorbital trench anteromedially, and into postorbital trenches laterally; posterior nasal opening separate from anterior margin of eye; elongate first dorsal spines absent; fifth pelvic fin ray branched once dichotomously; body red-orange with four white dorsolateral spots between caudal region and origin of second dorsal; no white ventrolateral spots; facial pattern with two thin, diffuse white diagonal lines under orbit and one over preopercle (Ref. 57688).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Inhabits clear lagoon and seaward reefs; within crevices and caves of mostly dead coral rock and sandy rubble bottom (Ref. 9710, 57688). Solitary (Ref. 90102).

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=0.01023 (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).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 253 [119, 618] mg/100g; Iron = 1.29 [0.62, 2.54] mg/100g; Protein = 18.1 [16.1, 19.9] %; Omega3 = 0.186 [0.073, 0.404] g/100g; Selenium = 29.6 [12.4, 67.7] μg/100g; VitaminA = 141 [37, 514] μg/100g; Zinc = 3.11 [1.90, 4.83] mg/100g (wet weight);
