Épines dorsales (Total) : 13; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 13 - 15; Épines anales: 2; Rayons mous anaux: 15 - 16.
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep; Cross section: compressed.
Adults occur in steep outer reef slopes and deep lagoons to moderate depths. Generally solitary among large rubble pieces or the bases of large corals (Ref. 48636). Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Eggs are demersal and adhere to the substrate (Ref. 205). Males guard and aerate the eggs (Ref. 205). Diurnal species (Ref. 52881).
