Short description Μορφολογία | Μορφομετρία

Ραχιαίες άκανθες (συνολικά): 19 - 22; Μαλακές ραχιαίες ακτίνες (συνολικά): 11-15; Εδρικές άκανθες 2; Μαλακές εδρικές ακτίνες: 21 - 23. This species without an orbital cirrus or a red banner is distinguished by the following characters: TP territorial males found in holes with a black head; the anterior dorsal fin is plain black without a white rim; first dorsal-fin spine is very short, when adpressed reaching to 4th spine base, about 1/4 HL, the subsequent spines rising to midfin spines; occasionally a short row of small dark spots along anterior lateral midline, occasionally an irregular row of dark spots along proximal membranes of spinous dorsal fin (Ref. 125603). Dark-shaded, pale, and transitional TP have very short first dorsal-fin spine, that when adpressed reaches to 4th spine base, with subsequent spines rising to midfin; usually with an irregular row of dark spots along proximal spinous-dorsal fin membranes, often indistinct; occasionally with a short row of small dark spots along anterior lateral midline; no opercular bands or lines; the reduced head markings often only a dark band from eye across jaw, sometimes a moustache band at rim above maxilla (Ref. 125603). IP with very short first dorsal-fin spines, the first spine when adpressed reaching to base of 3rd or 4th spine base, spines rising sharply to midfin spines. Colouration: live colors red, orange, and pink; the cranial pattern a Y-shape: whith a rounded red band 1, band 2 a prominent Y with pale arms and a red stalk, a reduced band 3 often just one, sometimes two, isolated spots or segments, a long pale band 4 becoming red towards the midline, band 5 inconspicuous; IP head spots are reduced, typically only a band from eye across jaws, sometimes a spot at corner of jaw; melanophores near pectoral-fin base are usually diffuse, occasionally one or two spots (Ref. 125603).

Βιολογία     Γλωσσάρι (π.χ. epibenthic)

Inhabit small patch reefs surrounded by fine white sand (Ref. 5521). It is usually found on live corals or gorgonians, often photographed nestled in the grooves of brain corals, with the TP males occupying holes in live corals or sponges; depth range extends to 20 m at least (Ref. 125603).
