Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ökologie
seewasser riff-verbunden; tiefenbereich 49 - ? m (Ref. 27370). Tropical
Eastern Central Pacific: Pitcairn.
Size / Gewicht / Alter
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 7.9 cm SL (female)
Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 11; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 15; Afterflossenstacheln: 4; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 10; Wirbelzahl: 27. The slender, slightly compressed body is probably mainly, if not entirely, red in life; 5 rows of oblique scales on cheek; body slender, the depth 3.1 in SL; head length (HL) 2.55 in SL; very large eye, 2.6 in HL; very narrow suborbital shelf; anterior end of the nasal bone is rounded; moderately large nasal fossa spineless; surface or medial edge of the nasal bone spineless; third dorsal spine longest, 2.2 in HL; spinous and soft portions of dorsal fin completely separated; third anal spine 1.35 in HL; pointed caudal fin lobes (Ref. 27370).
The species may penetrate deeper water (suggested by the large eyes); the 49 m depth could be near the upper limit of its depth range (Ref. 27370).
