Etymology: Stolephorus: Greek, stole, -es = garment + Greek, pherein = to carry (Ref. 45335).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / distribuzione batimetrica / distribution range
Ecologia
marino pelagic-neritic; distribuzione batimetrica 0 - 50 m (Ref. 189). Tropical; 5°S - 15°S, 141°E - 148°E (Ref. 189)
Western Central Pacific: Gulf of Papua and off northern Australia in Gulf of Carpentaria.
Size / Peso / Age
Maturità: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 4.2 cm SL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 189)
Spine dorsali (totale) : 0; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 19 - 22. Belly a little rounded, with 4 or 5 small needle-like pre-pelvic scutes. Maxilla tip pointed, reaching to or beyond hind edge of sub-operculum; hind border of pre-operculum convex, rounded. No tooth patches on upper edge of hyoid bones. Closely resembles S. commerson, which has a shorter maxilla, fewer scutes, fewer anal fin rays and a dark line before dorsal fin.
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: compressed.
Presumably coastal, pelagic and schooling (Ref. 189, 75154). Adults are not yet known, only juveniles to a length to 4.2 cm SL. More specimens and data needed.
