Descrição suscinta
Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 2; Raios dorsais (total) : 22 - 24; Raios anais : 20 - 22; Vértebras: 20. Diagnosis: Extremely small size at maturity (1.5 cm SL). Prominently elevated dorsal and ventral profiles. Extremely long bristles on caudal peduncle of male, projecting posteriorly to behind middle of caudal fin. Low fin ray counts (D.22 to 24; A.20 to 22; P.10) (Ref. 35708).
Inhabits sheltered coastal habitats, usually in areas with mixed low reef and sparse seagrass (Ref. 48637).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 25.2 - 29.3, mean 28.6 °C (based on 1897 cells).
Índice de diversidade filogenética (Ref.
