Grootte / Gewicht / Leeftijd
Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 31.0 cm TL mannelijk / geslacht onbekend; (Ref. 9710)
Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 9; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 10; Anale stekels: 3; Anale zachte stralen: 9. Males resemble S. bowersi but differs in that the tan area of S. bowersi does not extend as far back as the anal fin (Ref. 1602). Initial phase has a distinctive black spot at front of the anal fin and yellowish tail and soft dorsal fin.
A rare species found in coastal and outer reefs with dense coral cover (Ref. 9710); often silty habitats (Ref. 48636).
