Size / Vikt / Age
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - 16 cm
Max length : 30.0 cm SL hane/ej könsbestämd; (Ref. 6205)
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 12; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 17 - 19; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 2; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 16 - 18; Ryggkotor: 32 - 34. Swim bladder with a median anterior extension and very brown to rusty brown very narrow bars extending from the back obliquely forward to touch or almost touch a conspicuous silvery midlateral longitudinal stripe.
Most common near weed banks and coral reefs in shallow-water, but not captured in shallow areas of southern waters. Oviparous (Ref. 205), and are multiple spawners with synchronous development (Ref. 36823). Associated with S. burrus, S. schomburgkii, and S. analis. The flesh is of excellent quality (Ref. 6205).
