Descrição suscinta Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria

Espinhos dorsais (total) : 9; Raios dorsais (total) : 12; Espinhos anais: 3; Raios anais : 12. Color changes quickly from when moving from swimming near the bottom to open water to feed and the striped pattern of the female fades to an even grey that makes them difficult to see. Males have a variable banded pattern and this also changes with moods (Ref. 48636).

Usually well above open bottoms with mixed sand, rubble, and coral (Ref. 9710). Found in areas periodically exposed to strong currents (Ref. 90102). Feeds on zooplankton (Ref. 9710).
