Spine dorsali (totale) : 13; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 10 - 11; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 10 - 11.
Adults inhabit outer reef slopes. large aggregations common on the outer reef near Suva, Fiji Islands (Ref. 7247). 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).
