Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 13; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 13 - 14; Espinas anales: 2; Radios blandos anales: 13 - 14.
Found usually among beds of branching corals in shallow lagoon reefs, singly or in small groups (Ref. 4966). Feed primarily on the polyps of Acropora corals. Diurnal species (Ref. 113699). 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).
