Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 7 - 8; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 21 - 24; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 20 - 22. In life, it is dark brown becoming yellowish posteriorly.
Adults are cryptic among coral and rubble on reef flats and upper portion of seaward reefs (Ref. 1602). Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114).
