Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 16 - 17; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 10 - 11; Espinas anales: 1; Radios blandos anales: 20; Vértebra: 37.
Adults inhabit sand channels in patch reefs (Ref. 90102). Eggs are hemispherical and covered with numerous sticky threads that anchor them in the algae on the nesting sites (Ref. 240). Larvae are planktonic which occur primarily in shallow, nearshore waters (Ref. 94114).
