Ecologia de Pterapogon kauderni
| Ref. principal | Allen, G.R. and R.C. Steene, 1995 |
|---|---|
| Notas | Common around the jetty, in silty sand bottoms with seagrass (Enhalus acoroides). Groups were seen associated with long-spined Diadema sea urchins (Ref. 54301). Individuals of 2 to 60 hover directly above the urchins, with the younger ones about 2-3 cm SL staying closer to the urchins. The fish retreat among the spines when threatened. Probably feed on small benthic and planktonic crustaceans at night. |
