Grootte / Gewicht / Leeftijd
Maturiteit: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 10.0 cm TL mannelijk / geslacht onbekend; (Ref. 47838)
Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 13 - 14; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 18 - 19; Anale stekels: 3; Anale zachte stralen: 14 - 16. Upper half of body yellow-orange, shading into blackish basally in dorsal fin; lower half of body white; orange bands on head and a narrow orange bar on caudal peduncle (Ref. 13442).
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep; Cross section: compressed.
Inhabit deep coral-rich reefs and drop-offs (Ref. 47838). Feed on small invertebrates. Often seen nibbling on the tube feet of sea urchins or the tentacles of tubeworms (Ref. 9710). Unlike some chaetodonts it does not pick parasites from the bodies of other fishes (Ref. 5521). Solitary, sometimes in pairs (Ref. 47838). Seek refuge when approached (Ref. 47838). Oviparous (Ref. 205). Form pairs during breeding (Ref. 205).
