Max length : 10.0 cm TL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 30464); 7.3 cm SL (female); common length : 8.0 cm TL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 30464)

A common, secretive species of inshore reefs (Ref. 34024). Lives on rocky shores, often buried in sand, mud or silt below stones or other hard substrate. Specimens in collections often had medium to coarse grained quartz sand trapped in the gill opening (a sand-bottom adaptation and might explain why it is so rarely caught together with D. hoesei, even though both species live in the same general area of south-eastern Australia Depths down to 5 m. A female specimen (AMS I.16469-016, 62 mm SL ) was found to contain two pale unpigmented embryos, 6-7 mm SL. Maximum length for female taken from Ref. 57886.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 15.3 - 27.2, mean 23.3 (based on 731 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5312 [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): 3.3 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 4.5 - 14 anni (Assuming Fec < 100).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
