Kurzbeschreibung
Morphologie | Morphometrie
Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt): 16 - 18; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt): 7-10; Afterflossenstacheln 3; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 6 - 8; Wirbelzahl: 26 - 30. Pelvic fins black anteriorly fading to yellow-brown posteriorly; anal fun blue. Males with 3-5 yellow ocelli on anal fin (Ref. 5595). Gill rakers on first ceratobranchial 9-12; gill rakers on first epibranchial 2-3 (Ref. 27596).
Adults inhabit the sediment-free rocky habitat, usually at exposed sites. Feed from the biocover on the rocks by combing loose material from the aufwuchs (Ref. 5595). Mouthbrooding by females (Ref. 53335).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 2.0 ±0.00 se; based on food items.
Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref.
120179): hoch, Verdopplung der Population dauert weniger als 15 Monate. (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
