Etymology: Chrysiptera: Greek, chrysos = golden + Greek, pteron = fin, wing (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: Dr Walter Albert Starck II (d: 1939) is a marine biologist, ichthyologist and pioneer of coral reef research, who first pointed out the damselfish species to Allen while diving at Osprey Reef, Coral Sea. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Adults inhabit rocky outcrops and crevices that are frequently situated in sand channels on outer reef slopes. Common in deeper sections of the outer reef about 20 to 60 m in depth (Ref. 7247). Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Eggs are demersal and adhere to the substrate (Ref. 205). Males guard and aerate the eggs (Ref. 205). Diurnal species (Ref. 54980; 113699).
