Maturité: Lm? range ? - ? cm Max length : 30.0 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 5372); âge max. reporté: 10 années (Ref. 72479)
Épines dorsales (Total) : 12; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 24 - 27; Épines anales: 3; Rayons mous anaux: 19 - 22. The dorsal caudal and anal fins are bright yellow. Body color is white with a black elliptical marking along the edge of the posterior portion of the back extending across the caudal peduncle to the base of the posterior anal fin rays. A series of thin vertical black lines run across the sides, and a prominent vertical black band runs across the eye (Ref. 4855). Snout length 2.0-2.7 in HL. Body depth 1.4-1.7 in SL (Ref. 90102). Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep; Cross section: compressed.
Adults occur in lagoon and seaward reefs, usually in pairs in coral rich areas (Ref. 1602). Benthopelagic (Ref. 58302). They feed mainly on coral polyps and anemones, but also on small invertebrates and algae (Ref. 1602). Largest species in the genus (Ref. 9710). Oviparous (Ref. 205). Form pairs during breeding (Ref. 205).
