Teleostei (teleosts) > Ovalentaria/misc (Various families in series Ovalentaria) > Grammatidae (Basslets)
Etymology: Gramma: Greek, gramma, atos = signal, mark (Ref. 45335); dejongi: Named for Arie De Jong of De Jong Marinelife, who first recognized the new species and provided the type specimens.
Eponymy: Arie De Jong (d: 1954) is owner-operator of De Jong Marinelife, a marine aquarium-fish supplier based in the village of Spijk, The Netherlands. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics
Dorsal spines (total): 12; Dorsal soft rays (total): 10; Anal spines: 3; Anal soft rays: 10. Distinct with the following characters: D XII,10; A III,10; pectoral rays 15; upper jaw length 2.25-2.40 in HL; length of pelvic fin 0.91-1.06 in HL; shallow emarginate caudal fin; body golden yellow, except for magenta surrounding pelvic-fin insertion, along ventral isthmus, operculum, and branchiostegal membranes (usually with a separate tiny streak underlining posterior mandible) and rearward along ventral abdomen; pelvic fins are bright purple-magenta with a darker streak along length of second soft-ray; presence of magenta patch covering first 3-4 dorsal-fin spines (not extending onto body) and surrounding an oval black spot about pupil diameter on outer half of first 3 spinous membranes (Ref. 85755).
Found on walls, in shallow reef areas (Ref. 85755). Minimum depth at 5 m (B. Victor, pers. omm. 10/18).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD50 = 0.5313 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
