Environnement : milieu / zone climatique / profondeur / gamme de distribution
Écologie
marin récifal; profondeur 3 - 40 m (Ref. 48636), usually 5 - 30 m (Ref. 27115). Tropical; 24°C - 28°C (Ref. 27115)
Western Pacific: Moluccas to the Solomon Islands, north to southern Japan, south to Rowley Shoals. Recently recorded from Tonga (Ref. 53797).
Taille / Poids / Âge
Maturité: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 24.0 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 9710)
Épines dorsales (Total) : 9; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 10; Épines anales: 3; Rayons mous anaux: 8. The cheek lacks the multiple lines below the eye and dorsal fin has two thin, usually irregular, red marginal lines (Ref. 48636). The concave head profile of this species is similar to that of C. oxycephalus, but its coloration is distinctive.
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
Inhabits coral-rich areas of protected reefs (Ref. 9710), with a rich mix of soft and brittle hard corals and other invertebrates (Ref. 48636). Reported to be associated with the mushroom Heliofungia actiniformis (Ref. 91291). Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205).
