Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 10; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 15; Spine anali: 3; Raggi anali molli: 7. This species differs from closely related P. lori in details of color and by having fewer dorsal rays (Ref. 37816). Saddles more pronounced and along entire dorsal fin to base of caudal fin (Ref. 48635).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
Inhabits rocky reefs (Ref. 41299). Forms large schools, frequently mixed with other Pseudanthias (Ref 90102). Maximum depth reported taken from Ref. 128797.
