Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 9; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 12; Espinas anales: 3; Radios blandos anales: 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).
