Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologie
marien rifbewoner; diepte 2 - 20 m (Ref. 86942). Tropical; 26°N - 24°S
Pacific Ocean: islands of Oceania except Hawaii, Easter Island, Pitcairn Group or islands off the Plate such as Solomon Islands and New Caledonia.

Grootte / Gewicht / Leeftijd
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 26.5 cm TL mannelijk / geslacht onbekend; (Ref. 89972)
Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 11; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 13 - 14; Anale stekels: 4; Anale zachte stralen: 10 - 13. This species is the only Micronesian large-scaled Myripristis that lacks scales on its inner pectoral axil. It also differs by having a white spot on the upper inner pectoral axil and combination of dark red (versus black) opercular membrane, dark red or purple pectoral axil, distinct white ring around the iris, an white anterior margins of its pelvic an soft rayed fins.
Inhabits reef flats, lagoons, and seaward reefs (Ref. 9710). Commonly found on exposed outer-reef areas; often at low islands and atolls than high islands (Ref. 12419). Feeds on zooplanktons (Ref. 89972).
