Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 0; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 0. Body covered with numerous, densely clustered dark, small and large spots that form a reticular network of light ground color between them; dark crossbands strong on ventral surface of tail (Ref. 13575).

Biologi     Ordlista (t.ex. epibenthic)

Found on shallow coral reefs of the continental shelf (Ref. 247). Probably mainly feeding on benthic invertebrates (Ref. 6871). Oviparous (Ref. 50449).
