Description synthétique
Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie
Épines dorsales (Total) : 9; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 12; Épines anales: 3; Rayons mous anaux: 12. Dorsal half of body dark, or without distinct markings. Anteriormost pair of teeth on lower jaw distinctly larger than other teeth. First dorsal spin in males elongated. Caudal fin emarginate or truncate (Ref. 43239).
Found up to a depth of at least 25 m in lagoon, channel and seaward reefs (Ref. 9710). Often on open sand flats with large remote bommies in depths of about 20 m. Juveniles congregate on reefs, usually in depths of 10-20 m feeding on mysids (Ref. 48636). Aggregates (with females outnumbering the males) along upper edges of coral slopes to feed on zooplankton (Ref. 9710, 48636). Maximum depth reported taken from Ref. 128797.
