Short description
সনাক্তকারী নির্দেশক | বহিঃ অঙ্গ সংস্থান | মরফোমেট্রিক্স
পৃষ্ঠীয় কাঁটা (মোট ) : 3; পৃষ্ঠীয় নরম পাখনা দন্ড (মোট ) : 29; পায়ূর নরম পাখনা্তুন্ড: 25; কশেরুকা : 18. This species is distinguished by the following characters: 3 pigmented cheek grooves; low body scale rows count 34 (33-35) vs. 39 or more; small size, 15.4 cm SL vs. over 22.5 cm SL; and a colour pattern of scattered dark spots sub-dorsally and without other spots or line on the body.
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep.
This species is relatively abundant within its depth range, on coral rubble and holes adjacent to deeper drop-offs (below a thermocline) at several localities of the coasts of Kiritimati (Christmas Island). It has always been observed near the reef substratum, where it would seek shelter when approached (Ref. 94129).
