Spine dorsali (totale) : 11 - 12; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 12 - 13; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 12 - 13. Overall color is brown with a prominent black spot on the base of the pectoral fin. Caudal fin and peduncle white.
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep; Cross section: compressed.
Adults inhabit coral or rocky outer reefs (Ref. 7247). Diurnal species (Ref. 52881). 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).
