Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Écologie
marin récifal; profondeur 4 - 50 m (Ref. 37816). Tropical; 19°N - 12°S

Taille / Poids / Âge
Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 11.0 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 48635)
Épines dorsales (Total) : 7; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 9; Épines anales: 2; Rayons mous anaux: 8. Distinguished externally from C. quinquelineatus by the position of the basicaudal spot which is in line with the mid-lateral stripe, and internally by having canine teeth at the end of the lower jaw (Ref. 37816, 48635).
Occurs in lagoon reefs to depths of at least 12 m. Usually in small groups among staghorn corals (Ref. 48635). Often collected with C. quinquelineatus, but tends to prefer deeper areas (Ref. 37816). Feeds on small fishes. Maximum depth reported taken from Ref. 128797.
