မိ်ဳးပြားရန္အရြယ္ေရာက္ျပီ: Lm? range ? - ? cm Max length : 130 cm TL အထီး/လိြင္ခြဲျခားျခင္းမျပဳနုိင္ေသာ; (Ref. 9710); common length : 70.0 cm SL အထီး/လိြင္ခြဲျခားျခင္းမျပဳနုိင္ေသာ; (Ref. 9793); အမ်ားဆံုး ပံုနွိပ္ထုတ္ေ၀ထားေသာ အေလးခ်ိန္: 46.0 kg (Ref. 2334)
ေက်ာဆူးေတာင္ (စုစုေပါင္း) : 9; ေက်ာဘက္တြင္ရွိေသာ ေရယက္၌ပါေသာ အမွ်င္မ်ား (စုစုေပါင္း) : 10; စအိုတြင္ရွိေသာဆူးေတာင္မ်ား: 3; စအိုနားတြင္ရွိျပီး နူးညံ့ေသာေရယက္အမွ်င္မ်ား: 9. This species is distinguished by the following characters: median predorsal scales 2-4 (may be obscured by hump); 3 scale rows on cheek, 1 (4-6), 2 (3-6), 3 (1-2); pectoral-fin rays 16 or 17; steep profile distinctive; nodules on teeth unique (Ref. 9793); prominent bump on forehead of adult (evident at least 25 cm TL); deep body 2.0-2.5 in SL, with depth increasing with growth; Colour of juveniles brownish to green with 5 vertical rows of whitish spots on side, the primary phase is a dull gray with scattered white spots, gradually becoming uniformly dark green (Ref. 90102, 1602). Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
Juveniles are found in lagoons while adults inhabit clear outer lagoon and seaward reefs up to depths of at least 30 m (Ref. 9710). They ‘sleep’ in caves and often in shipwrecks at night (Ref. 48636). They are usually in small groups feeding on benthic algae, live corals (Ref. 9710) and shellfishes (Ref. 58784). They sometimes ram their head against corals to facilitate feeding (Ref. 9710). The largest and wariest of the parrotfishes. Assessments showed their vulnerability to overfishing (Ref. 9710). Minimum depth reported taken from Ref. 128797.
