Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 9; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 12; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 11 - 12. Juveniles and sub adults have a pair of ocelli on the dorsal fin which disappears with growth (Ref. 1602, 48636).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
Found in small groups (Ref. 90102) in seaward reefs to at least 35 m depth, usually in areas of mixed coral and reef rock with sand patches (Ref. 9710). Also in reef crests and slopes on rocky or rubble-algae substrates (Ref. 48636).
