Épines dorsales (Total) : 12; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 13 - 14; Épines anales: 2; Rayons mous anaux: 15 - 16. Six vertical pairs of dark spots on body posterior to a vertical from the base of the first segmented dorsal fin ray; the posteriormost pair of dark spots posteriorly elongated and attenuating onto the base of the caudal fin (Ref. 50537).
Adults occur in coral reefs (Ref. 50537). Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114).
