Short description
Morfologi | Morfometri
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 0; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 15-16; Taggstrålar i analfenan 0; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 13; Ryggkotor: 34. This species is distinguished by the following characters: a membrane joining dorsal and anal fins with the caudal fin; the anus is closer to anal fin than to disc, about two-thirds the distance from the rear margin of the disc to the origin of anal fin; upper attachment of gill membrane opposite ninth pectoral-fin ray; second gill arch with 8 rakers; postdorsal-caudal distance 6.4-7.3 in dorsal-fin length; D 15-16; A 13; pectoral-fin rays 26-28 (rarely 28); principle caudal-fin rays 12; total caudal-fin rays 20 (Ref. 103877).
Specimens were collected from the base of a coral block on a reef flat with mixed sand and flat rock with patches of dead corals, from within live coral head in a sheltered bay, from a fringing reef at a depth of 1-3 m and from an isolated coral block. All were collected in close association with sea urchins of the genus Diadema, utilizing the long spines for shelter (Ref. 103877).
