簡短描述 型態特徵 | 形態測量圖

背棘 (總數): 11; 背的軟條 (總數): 15-17; 臀棘 3; 臀鰭軟條: 8. Brown spots evenly distributed and packed into hexagonal shapes only on adults which are generally larger (>25 to 45 cm); front portion of spinous dorsal fin about 50% taller than on other species at all sizes (Ref. 37816); small juveniles black with white blotches, becoming more spotted with age (Ref. 48635); further characterized by having ctenoid scales on body; auxiliary scales on body; greatest depth of body 2.7-3.1 in SL; rounded caudal fin; pelvic fins 1.7-2.0 in head length (Ref. 90102); head length 2.4-2.6 times in SL; flat to slightly convex interorbital area, convex dorsal head profile; preopercle with shallow indentation just above the enlarged serrae at angle; straight or slightly convex upper edge of operculum, posterior and anterior nostrils subequal; maxilla reaches to or past vertical at rear edge of eye, ventral edge with blunt hook-like process distally in fish larger than 35 cm SL; 2 rows of teeth on midlateral part of lower jaw (Ref. 89707).
褐色的斑點均勻地只有在成魚身上分佈了而且擠入了六角形的形狀那是通常比較大的;(>25 對 45 cm) 關於 50% 的刺狀背鰭的前部高的超過在其他的種上大小不一.(參考文獻 37816) 小的稚魚黑色的有白色的斑塊, 變成更多斑點的隨著年齡。 (參考文獻 48635)

生物學特性     字彙 (例如 epibenthic)

Juveniles are found in shallow coral rubble, adults in isolated coral heads of lagoon and seaward reefs to depths of 82 m. Feeds mainly on sand-dwelling fishes and crustaceans, sometimes on octopuses. In the Hong Kong live fish markets (Ref. 27253). May be ciguatoxic in certain areas (Ref. 37816). Solitary, often seen on open sand and base of reefs (Ref 90102).

稚魚被發現於水淺的珊瑚殘礫,成魚在隔離了潟湖與臨海礁石到深度 82 公尺的珊瑚頂部。 主要吃棲息於砂中的魚與甲殼動物, 有時吃章魚。 在香港活魚販售。 (參考文獻 27253) 在特定的區域中的可能具有熱帶海魚毒.(參考文獻 37816)
