Short description Morfología | Morfometría

Espinas dorsales (total): 13; Radios blandos dorsales (total): 10-11; Espinas anales 2; Radios blandos anales: 10 - 12. Tubed lateral line scales 11-14; brilliant deep blue with lighter blue ocellus-like markings on head and breast, and black spot or blotch at base of posterior dorsal rays; caudal fin emarginate (Ref. 31117). Body depth 1.9-2.2 in SL (Ref. 90102).

Adults are found in sheltered seaward coral reefs and lagoons (Ref. 31117), in aggregations within Acropora sp. and Seriatopora histrix (Ref. 41819). Presumably feeding on zooplankton (Ref. 31117). 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. 52881).
