	<dc:description>Occurs in rocky or coral-rich areas of deep lagoons, channels and outer reef slopes; usually in or near caves (Ref. 089707).  Solitary (Ref 90102). Juveniles are found in tide pools.  Feeds on fish and crustaceans (Ref. 6113).  In Hong Kong live fish markets (Ref. 27253). Caught with hook-and-line, spear, and in traps and probably of some importance to fisheries in areas where it is common (Ref. 39231).</dc:description>
