Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Diagnosis. This species of the Prooculis group has the following characters: body without alternating dark and pale stripes or distinct dark spots; the head with dark postorbital stripe extending across head onto body anteriorly; in life, the dark postorbital stripe is bordered ventrally by bright white stripe; other bright markings on head white or pale yellowish; the belly is bluish (Ref. 54476).
Adults inhabit sheltered reefs at 3-12 m deep (Ref. 90102). Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114).
