Espinhos dorsais (total) : 9; Raios dorsais (total) : 12; Espinhos anais: 3; Raios anais : 11 - 12; Vértebras: 25. In life, body bright yellow, head and thorax yellow-orange; a spot behind eye; head with irregular light-green bands. Dorsal fin of males with a large black, white-rimmed spot at the first interspinous membrane (another spot may appear on the soft portion between 2nd and 3rd rays for smaller males); females with a second black, light yellow-rimmed spot; smaller females and juveniles with a third blackish spot on penultimate membrane. Anterior lateral line scales with 2-4 pores; 6-12 suborbital pores. Pelvic fins not reaching anus.
Found at the reef edge, in sand and rubble areas (Ref. 9710) usually in small groups (Ref. 90102).
