Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie
Épines dorsales (Total) : 13; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 13 - 14; Rayons mous anaux: 13 - 15. This species is distinguished by this set of characters: D XIII, 13-14; A 13-15; pectoral rays 17-18; tubed lateral-line scales 17-19; total gill rakers on the first branchial arch 19-21; yellow juvenile phase with blue stripes on the upper head and adjacent anterodorsal portion of the body; light grey to dark greyish brown adult phase with a dark-edged greenish spot just below lateral line origin (Ref. 86257).
Adults inhabit silty reefs around coral and rock outcrops (Ref. 86257). 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).
