Short description
Morfologi | Morfometri
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 11; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 13-15; Taggstrålar i analfenan 4; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 12 - 13. Fins are uniformly red and lack white leading edges or darker tips.
Inhabits reef flats and seaward slopes to depths of more than 52 m where it is found in groups in caves and under ledges (Ref. 1602). Benthopelagic (Ref. 58302).
