Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 14; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 14 - 16; Espinas anales: 2; Radios blandos anales: 15 - 17. Exhibits geographic color variations.
Adults inhabit inshore and offshore coral reefs (Ref. 7247). Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Eggs are demersal and adhere to the substrate (Ref. 205). Males guard and aerate the eggs (Ref. 205).
