Short description Morfologi | Morfometri

Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 16 - 17; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 15-16; Taggstrålar i analfenan 2; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 25 - 26. Pale tan or white with 4 broad reddish-brown bands on side between nape and caudal fin base. Dorsal and caudal fin rays have dark spots. 3 spines in dorsal finlet (Ref. 26938).

Biologi     Ordlista (t.ex. epibenthic)

Inhabits sand and rubble areas around coral reefs or exposed rocks. Absent from surf beaches (Ref. 27742). The reddish-brown bands along the sides of the fish serve as camouflage when the fish partially buries itself in sand (Ref. 26938).
