Ekologi
marina revassocierade; djupintervall 4 - 70 m (Ref. 26938). Subtropical; 34°N - 10°S, 99°W - 32°W
Western Atlantic: Bermuda and southern Florida, USA to northern Brazil. Also in Bahamas and Caribbean, including Antilles (Ref. 26938).
Storlek / Vikt / Ålder
Könsmognad: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 22.0 cm TL hane/ej könsbestämd; (Ref. 5217); common length : 16.0 cm TL hane/ej könsbestämd; (Ref. 5217)
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 10; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 12. Back crossed by yellow spots and saddles, some of which expand on upper side.
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal.
Inhabits shallow rocky or coral bottoms with clear water (Ref. 5217). In groups on deeper reefs (Ref. 9710). Synchronously hermaphroditic. Negligible commercial value due to its small size (Ref. 5217). Sometimes follows goatfishes (family Mullidae) as they probe the sand for invertebrates (Ref. 26938).
