Etymology: Bodianus: Bodianus after Bodiano or Pudiano, from the Portuguese pudor, meaning modesty (Jordan & Evermann, 1896).; insularis: Name derived from a Latin adjective meaning 'of an island'; in reference to the apparent restriction of this species to islands associated with the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (Ref. 75973).

Caught in areas of rock and rubble bottoms associated with sand or reef-like areas. Protogynous hermaphrodite, with obvious sexual dichromatism (Ref. 5292). Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Juveniles remove ectoparasites from other species (Ref. 86997).
