Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ökologie
seewasser riff-verbunden; tiefenbereich 0 - 18 m (Ref. 9710). Tropical
Indo-Pacific: East Africa to the Society Islands, north to Izu Islands, south to Australia; throughout Micronesia (Ref. 1602). Specimens from the Pacific Ocean, currently
regarded as P. mossambica, are most likely to be P. armata (H. Motomura, unpubl. data). The name, P. mossambica., remains valid for specimens from the Indian Ocean (Ref. 86966).
