Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 13; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 15 - 16; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 12.
Adults inhabit sheltered inshore coral reefs. Easily overlooked with similarities to many other species (Ref. 48636). 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).
