Taille / Poids / Âge
Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 4.5 cm SL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 27771); 3.2 cm SL (female)
Épines dorsales (Total) : 10; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 16 - 18; Épines anales: 3; Rayons mous anaux: 7. The bright red colors show as dark grey to almost black in natural light available in deep water (Ref. 48635).
Occurs in deep coastal and inner reef drop-offs from 30 m downwards. Rarely observed by divers because of its depth preference (Ref. 48635). Collected with rotenone and quinaldine at depths of 14-65 m (Ref. 81822). Solitary at base of steep slopes among rubble or in crevices (Ref 90102).
