Kurzbeschreibung
Bestimmungsschlüssel | Morphologie | Morphometrie
Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 16 - 17; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 10 - 12; Afterflossenstacheln: 2; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 19 - 22. 22-26 pored scales in the anterior lateral line series; 0-13 notched scales in the posterior series. The second dorsal fin without an ocellate black blotch but may be distally blackish, the anal fin pale, occasionally with whitish spots; the pelvic fin pale, and the dorsal fine spines each with two large distal spinules.
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: oval.
Associated with yellow sponges. Eggs are hemispherical and covered with numerous sticky threads that anchor them in the algae on the nesting sites (Ref. 240). Larvae are planktonic which occur primarily in shallow, nearshore waters (Ref. 94114).
