Teleostei (teleosts) > Gobiiformes (Gobies) > Gobiidae (Gobies) > Sicydiinae
Etymology: Lentipes: Latin, lens, lentis = slow + Latin, pes = foot (Ref. 45335); kaaea: Named after the Chief of the Napwé tribe, Kaaea.
Eponymy: Kaaea is a Napwé Tribal Chief, who kindly permitted the collection of freshwater fishes on tribal lands in New Caledonia. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Oceania: New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Fidji and Futuna (Ref. 47442 and also Ref. 87775).
Size / Weight / Age
Occurs in swift clear high gradient streams with slab and boulder strewn bottom, some course gravel may be present. Observed swimming in strong currents rather than being attached to rock surface like other species of Sycidiinae in the environment (Ref. 47442).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD50 = 0.5000 [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).
Resilience (Ref. 120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
