Issue
It seems that there is confusion between two species described by Quoy & Gaimard: Pristipoma sexlineatum now valid as Pelates sexlineatus (Quoy & Gaimard, 1824), and Pelates sexlineatus Quoy & Gaimard, 1825, the present species, described one year later. See nomenclatural details in Eschmeyer (CofF ver. Mar. 2012: Ref. 89686). A species page will be created for the next update for the species described in 1824. A new replacement name would be needed for the species of 1825 if is is placed again in Pelates.

Estimates of some properties based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82805): PD₅₀ = 1.0000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01380 (0.00621 - 0.03068), b=3.01 (2.82 - 3.20), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic Level (Ref. 69278): 2.0 ±0.00 se; Based on food items.

Resilience (Ref. 69278): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (16 of 100) .
