Description synthétique
Clés d'identification | Morphologie | Morphométrie
Males are readily identified by the bright red head that even looks red at depth where red light is suppressed greatly. The female is easily mistaken for other orange striped species, but has an additional ocelli at the end of the dorsal fin. Male and female very different (Ref. 48636).
Habitat comprises brittle corals growing dense and high on rubble slopes of inner reef, coastal side, in depths between 10-35 m (Ref. 48636).
