Short description Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría

Espinas dorsales (total) : 12 - 15; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 7 - 8; Espinas anales: 2; Radios blandos anales: 5. Geographical differences: specimens from the Gulf of Thailand usually with large blotches over the body; those from Indonesia and Australia generally have less solid markings. Species observed to alter its color from light to dark in captivity. Scales in vertical rows, 44-66 (Ref. 39597).

Found inshore on and around corals and hard bottoms (Ref. 39597), silty and muddy habitats (Ref. 48635). Often taken by nets and handlines (Ref. 39597). Also found in rocky bottoms and coral reef crevices in about 7-70 m (Ref 90102).
