Comments: Type locality, Port Lincoln, SA, BMNH 1865.5.13.2 (holotype of Phyllopteryx eques). Known from Kangaroo Island, SA (137°58'E) to Yanchep Beach, WA (31°33'S) (Ref. 75154). Common in a few localities in south Western Australia; recently discovered off Victorian coast near Anglesea but has been reported as far as Wilson's Promontory to the east. Taken in small numbers by aquarium collectors for the domestic and international marine aquarium trade, although food requirements make it difficult to maintain (Ref. 31838).

Maturity: L_m ?, range 20 - ? cm
Max length : 35.0 cm TL पुल्लिंग / अलिंग; (Ref. 9002)

Usually occur over sand patches close to reefs with kelp, feeding on mysids and other crustaceans. Ovoviviparous (Ref. 205). The male carries the eggs in a brood pouch which is found under the tail (Ref. 205). One of the most spectacular examples of camouflage: neither prey nor predators recognize it as a fish.

About 250 eggs are incubated by males on the underside of the tail, where they are embedded in spongy tissue (Ref. 31838).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 16.3 - 18.5, mean 17.8 (based on 104 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 1.0000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00447 (0.00177 - 0.01127), b=3.00 (2.78 - 3.22), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.3 ±0.45 se; based on food items.

लौटाव (Ref. 120179): ऊंचा, न्यूनतम जनसंख्या दुगनी समय अवलागत 15 महीने। (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (25 of 100).
