Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 11; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 9; Espinas anales: 3; Radios blandos anales: 9. Body is green posteriorly , shading to dusky blue-green in the middle, and to brighter blue-green anteriorly and on postorbital portion of the head; lower fourth of the body light red; postorbital head and anterior upper half of the body finely speckled with black; snout greenish yellow.
More common in outer reef areas than sheltered lagoon reefs. Usually seen in small groups feeding a short distance above the bottom on zooplankton. These groups are composed mainly of females and juveniles. Males in courtship, actively swim up to 3 m or more above the bottom with fins fully erect.
