Western Pacific: Coral Sea (including the northern Great Barrier Reef) to Samoa.
Adults inhabit lagoon and offshore coral reefs (Ref. 7247). Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Eggs are demersal and adhere to the substrate (Ref. 205). Males guard and aerate the eggs (Ref. 205).

Estimates of some properties based on empirical models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82805): PD50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01725 (-0.10326 - 0.13776), b=2.96 (2.89 - 3.04), based on LWR estimates for species & family-BS (Ref. 93245).
Trophic Level (Ref. 69278): 2.7 ±0.29 se; Based on food items.
Resilience (Ref. 69278): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (16 of 100) .
