Short description

Dorsal spines (total): 9; Dorsal soft rays (total): 28 - 31; Anal spines: 3; Anal soft rays: 24 - 26. Sometimes has faint chevron bars similar to those of C. ferdau, but nearly has a few small yellow blotches on its sides. Large individuals develop a terminal snout and elongate points on the soft dorsal and anal fins (Ref. 37816).

Abundant around oceanic islands while not found in neritic areas (Ref. 9283). Pelagic (Ref. 58302). May be encountered in solitary, pairs or small schools. Schools frequent sandy river basins, sandy channels of lagoon and seaward reefs. Feed on small crustaceans in the sand (Ref. 9283). Marketed fresh and dried or salted (Ref. 9283).
