Short description Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría

Espinas dorsales (total) : 13; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 12 - 13; Espinas anales: 2; Radios blandos anales: 11 - 13. This species occurs in 2 basic color phases: a blue-backed (leucopoma) phase and a gray to black (amabilis) phase usually with 2 light bars (Ref. 37816). Large blue-edged black spot at end of dorsal fin base, and yellow form with black spots at end of dorsal fin and its base (Ref. 48636). Body depth 2.3-2.5 in SL (Ref. 90102).

Biología     Glosario (por ej. epibenthic)

Adults occur in rubble-strewn surge channels, the outermost reaches of exposed reef flats, and the upper submarine terrace at 12 meters. Territorial but they generally occur in groups, and remains close to shelter. Feed mainly on benthic algae and small crustaceans (Ref. 1602, 37816 ). 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. 54980; 113699).
