Short description Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale) : 11 - 12; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 15 - 18; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 17 - 21. Occurs in three color phases: one black anteriorly and yellow posteriorly (bicolor phase), the others black dorsally with a broad white lateral band and dusky belly with or without a yellow tail.

Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Found solitary in abandoned tubes (Ref. 90102). Inhabit clear lagoon and seaward reefs with mixed corals and algae-covered rocks. 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).
