Ecologia
marinhas associadas(os) a recifes; intervalo de profundidade 1 - 20 m (Ref. 9785). Tropical; 7°S - 30°S, 109°E - 141°E (Ref. 3810)
Western Pacific: northwestern Australia from Gulf of Carpentaria to Abrolhos Islands. Also known from Papua New Guinea (Ref. 6192). This species has been commonly referred to as Scaevius nicanor Whitley, but Scaevius milii is the older name.

Preopercle serrate, opercle scaly. Lower limb of preopercle naked. Upper margin of opercle with a small, flat, rounded spine. Pectoral fins short, not reaching to level of anus. Pelvic fins long, reaching to level of anus.
