Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie
Épines dorsales (Total) : 11 - 13; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 12 - 15; Épines anales: 2; Rayons mous anaux: 14 - 17. Body dusky ground in color with pale spots, dusky stripes anteriorly, short stripe on pectoral base.
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
Adults inhabit coral reefs (Ref. 9710). Are mesoplankton feeders (Ref. 94107). 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).
