Short description Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri

Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 12; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 9 - 10; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 3; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 10 - 12. Undergoes relatively minor changes in color with growth. Easily identified by the unusual coloration and long tail (Ref. 48636).

Adults inhabit seaward reefs. They occur on reefs rich with invertebrates such as gorgonians, seawhips and black corals (Ref. 48636). Common along steep outer reef slopes deeper than 25 m in Micronesia. Usually seen as lone individuals (Ref. 48636). Juveniles pose as cleaners (Ref. 8631). May be solitary or may exist in pairs (Ref. 5503). Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Maximum depth reported taken from Ref. 128797.
