Espinhos dorsais (total) : 10; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 12; Espinhos anais: 3; Raios anais moles: 6. This species possess numerous short filaments at the tip of each dorsal spine. Thickened and elongate lower pectoral rays.
Shallow coastal to outer reef flats and slopes to 45 m depth (Ref. 48636). Common inhabitant of coral reefs, typically resting at the bases of coral heads (Ref. 9710). Studies indicate that it is haremic and spawns nightly (Ref. 37816). Occasionally in pairs (Ref. 48636). Sometimes solitary (Ref 90102).
