Short description
Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale): 9; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 11; Spine anali 3; Raggi anali molli: 12. This species is distinguished by the following characters: D IX,11; A III,12; pectoral rays 13; lateral-line scales 27 (+1 on tail); head scaleless; gill rakers 14; anteriorly in each jaw is a pair of large, projecting, and slightly recurved canine teeth, the upper pair slightly out-flaring, the lowers curving forward and fitting between uppers when mouth closed; on each side of upper and lower jaws, a short irregular row of 4-7 chisel-like incisiform teeth, no canine posteriorly at corner of mouth; body, body elongated, depth 4.2-4.9 in SL, only slightly compressed, body width 1.4-1.8 in depth; caudal fin truncate in initial phase, with slightly extended upper and lower lobes in terminal-phase male; colour of initial phase reddish orange to pink, often with more yellow tint anteriorly and grading to white ventrally on the head and abdomen; in life, terminal-phase male with rear half of body emerald green with two bright blue stripes, lower along lateral midline, upper along mid-upper body, dorsum above upper blue line olive green; upper head and anterior body olive green, becoming darker to black at mid-body; lower half of head and anterior body with prominent yellow reticulum over magenta background; magenta line extends forward below orbit along upper jaw and back across snout to end over the orbit; dorsal and anal fins with bluish base and edge surrounding midline thick yellow band; caudal fin blue-edged top and bottom with a short blue extension of the mid-lateral stripe onto the fin (Ref. 95804).
Depth range (5-20 m) given by B. Victor (pers. comm. 10/18).

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=0.00977 (0.00470 - 0.02030), b=3.07 (2.89 - 3.25), 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
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
