Size / Weight / Age
Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics
Dorsal spines (total): 5; Dorsal soft rays (total): 18 - 21; Anal soft rays: 18 - 21. This species usually with prominent filamentous appendages along the ventral surface of the snout and may also have shorter appendages along the dorsal surface. Some individuals have 'hairy' filamentous appendages covering head, body and fins. Body with variable shades of brown, red and green, often with white mottling (Ref. 90102).
Found in algal/rubble reefs and sandy bottoms, often at depths below 10 m (Ref. 90102). Mostly pelagic until they settle on the substrate for breeding (Ref. 48635).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 23.3 - 29.3, mean 28.7 °C (based on 1453 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD50 = 0.5312 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.6 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
