Breve descrizione
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 12; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 10 - 12; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 10 - 12. Color is alternating blue and yellow stripes. The caudal fin has a broad yellow upper lobe margin and a broad black lower lobe margin. The margin of the spinous portion of the dorsal fin is also yellow; the anal fin is largely black.
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
Adults occur in small to large aggregations in exposed outer reef slopes and rocky inshore reefs (Ref. 3921). Benthopelagic (Ref. 58302). Diet consists of zooplankton, especially copepods (Ref. 3921). 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). Diurnal species (Ref. 54980; 113699). Minimum depth reported taken from Ref. 128797.
