Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 2; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 43 - 50; Spine anali: 0; Raggi anali molli: 41 - 46. Pale brown to grey in color; two brown stripes on body; adults with yellow spots on head and body; soft dorsal and anal fins yellowish; caudal fin dark brown (Ref. 4421).
Inhabit coastal reefs and enter estuaries. Often in silty habitat and usually on slopes with low rubble reef and rich invertebrate growth, ranging to moderate depths (Ref. 48637). Found on weedy and sandy areas of lagoon and seaward reefs (Ref. 9710). Often found in pairs (Ref. 9710). Sometimes solitary or in groups (Ref. 90102). Juveniles hide or shelter near seawhips or seapens (Ref. 48637).
