Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 1; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 25 - 27; Espinas anales: 1; Radios blandos anales: 17 - 19. Dorsal fin of males generally dusky when preserved, the large dark spot absent on anterior part of fin. Caudal vertebrae, 23-25 (usually 24). Anterior lateral line scales 32-39, usually 33-37. Posterior interorbital pores 1-2; total parietal pores 14-30, usually more than 30 (Ref. 42958).
Apparently living in corals with surfaces composed of tiny finger-like projections (Ref. 42958).

Bi-directional sex change has been proposed for this species though histological analysis of more specimens is needed for confirmation (Ref. 103751).
