Max length : 100.0 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 2334); âge max. reporté: 23 années (Ref. 52229)
Épines dorsales (Total) : 5; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 28 - 29; Épines anales: 2; Rayons mous anaux: 27 - 28. Plain brown or olivaceous in color, paler below; subadults with black caudal rays, narrow margins and white caudal filaments; pectoral fins with white distal margins (Ref. 3145).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
Juveniles occur in clear, shallow lagoon reefs at depths as little as 1 m; adults rarely seen in less than 25 m, encountered off outer reef drop-offs in small schools (Ref. 30573, 48637). Benthopelagic (Ref. 58302). Feeds on large zooplankton during the day and shelter within the reef during the night; also benthic algae (Ref. 30573, 48637).
