Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 13 - 16; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 8 - 9; Espinas anales: 1; Radios blandos anales: 15 - 17. Greenish-yellow above becoming reddish yellow with numerous dark spots (Ref. 37816).
Adults occur in seaward reefs in areas of strong surge, usually associated with a coralline rocky shore. Also found on beach rock, brown algae and coralline algae in shallow water (Ref. 13227). Eggs are hemispherical and covered with numerous sticky threads that anchor them in the algae on the nesting sites (Ref. 240). Larvae are planktonic which occur primarily in shallow, nearshore waters (Ref. 94114).
