Etymology: Priacanthus: Greek, prion = saw + Greek, akantha = thorn (Ref. 45335).

Ambiente: milieu / zona climática / intervalo de profundidade / gama de distribuição
Ecologia
marinhas associadas(os) a recifes; não migratória; intervalo de profundidade 3 - 230 m (Ref. 38732). Tropical
Eastern Pacific: Hawaiian and Midway Islands; a single juvenile specimen recorded from the Galapagos Islands. Strays reach Johnston Atoll (Ref. 9710). Reports from Japan are probably misidentifications of Priacanthus hamrur.
