Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

This species is distinguished by the following characters: small, moderately robust moray with body length noticeably greater than tail length; dorsal fin origin is about level with the gill opening; total vertebral count very low, 101-103. Colouration: in life pale yellow with brown reticulated network and prominent brown banding on dorsal and anal fins, more intense posteriorly (Ref. 123128).

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

The type specimens were captured at night on a sand-rubble bottom adjacent to coral reef at a depth of 16 m (Ref. 123128).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = No PD50 data   [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):  3.7   ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (13 of 100).
