Taille / Poids / Âge
Maturité: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 15.0 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 9710)
Épines dorsales (Total) : 13; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 15 - 16; Épines anales: 2; Rayons mous anaux: 13. Body color is generally dark brown with yellow or reddish suffusion on antero-dorsal part of head and body. The scales have blackish streaks near margin, giving an overall appearance of narrow transverse bands; a few small blue spots is scattered on head, breast and posteriorly on the sides. The spinous dorsal fin is reddish brown with orange submarginal band while outer edge of soft rays orange. A black spot is on the distal part of membrane between 2nd and 3rd dorsal spine. The tip of the upper caudal lobe is orange; the anterior edge of pelvic and anal fins is blue.
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep; Cross section: oval.
Adults are found around dead coral outcrops, also in rubble areas in lagoons and on the outer edge of reefs (Ref. 510). 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).
