Description This small-sized flatfish, as is currently known, has a widespread distribution from East Africa to the
central Pacific in shallow water. Despite its distribution, relatively limited information is available
regarding its population size or trends. Although it is occasionally found in markets, it typically inhabits
soft-bottom habitats associated with coral reefs; as a result, it is unlikely to be a major component of
demersal trawl bycatch. However, given its shallow occurrence, it may be impacted by habitat
degradation. It is listed as Least Concern.
