Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 10; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 12. Snout long and pointed. Black stripes and bars forming irregular rectangles on body. Has unique pointed snout and distinct color pattern make it easy to identify (Ref. 26938).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal.
Most common in areas with rock or scattered coral. Solitary or in pairs. Adults feed mainly upon crustaceans (Ref. 5521). Synchronously hermaphroditic. The most common member of the genus (Ref. 9710). Monogamous and always in home-ranging pairs, that is, they do not defend an exclusive territory (Ref. 52884).
