Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics
Anal spines: 1; Anal soft rays: 7 - 10. This species is distinguished from all its congeners by the following set of characters: head
plump, more or less rounded, dorsoventrally compressed; head broad, with the anterior
outline of the head forming a smooth convex curve when viewed dorsally; most males with
one, rarely two, dorsal-fin spines filamentous first spine reaching to between last first dorsal-
fin spine base to fifth second dorsal-fin ray base, occasionally to ninth second dorsal-fin
ray base; pectoral rays usually 20-21; D2 usually I,10; A usually I,9; basicaudal scales absent; body with broad dark brown bands, with smooth vertical margins (Ref. 87125).
Observed cleaning other fishes and commonly occurs with Elacatinus digueti (Ref. 87125). From the subtidal to depths of at least 35 m and commonly found below 15 m (Ref. 87125).

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=0.00933 (0.00510 - 0.01709), b=3.16 (3.00 - 3.32), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
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).
