Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 7; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 10; Spine anali: 1; Raggi anali molli: 9; Vertebre: 26. This species is distinguished by the following set of characters: jaw teeth subequal in shape and size; no postsymphysial canine teeth; no interopercle-isthmus groove; narrow gill opening; no elongated dorsal-fin spines; large second dorsal, anal and pelvic fins: second dorsal and anal fins reaching posteriorly to or beyond middle of caudal-fin base when appressed; pelvic fins reaching posteriorly to middle to posterior half of genital papilla; pectoral-fin rays 15 or 16; head, body and fins gray, no stripes or other markings when fresh or alive (Ref. 91086).
Facultative air-breathing in the genus (Ref. 126274); Inhabits coral reef slopes where individuals only live as commensals on the plate-shaped coral, Echinopora lamellosa (Ref. 91086)..
