Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 11 - 13; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 12 - 15; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 14 - 17. Body dusky ground in color with pale spots, dusky stripes anteriorly, short stripe on pectoral base.
Adults inhabit coral reefs (Ref. 9710). Are mesoplankton feeders (Ref. 94107). Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114).
