Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie
Épines dorsales (Total) : 9; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 11 - 12; Épines anales: 3; Rayons mous anaux: 9. Identified by the brightly color lined pattern and the small ocellus on the caudal fin base (Ref. 48636).
Occurs in seaward reefs among coral branches. Also in clear coastal waters, dense coral habitats on shallow reef crest or slopes to depth of about 20 m. Usually occurs in small loose groups. A shy species, usually swimming amongst the protection of coral branches (Ref. 48636). Feeds mainly on small crustaceans (Ref. 1602). Secretive (Ref. 37816).
