Ambiente: milieu / zona climatica / distribuzione batimetrica / gamma di distribuzione
Ecologia
marino associati a barriera corallina; distribuzione batimetrica 0 - 50 m (Ref. 90102), usually 0 - 15 m (Ref. 90102). Tropical; 19°N - 24°S

Dimensione / Peso / Età
Maturità: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 12.0 cm TL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 9710)
Spine dorsali (totale) : 2 - 3; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 16 - 20; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 13 - 15.
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
Occurs along seaward reefs near or along steep drop-offs with caves (Ref. 9710). In some areas it may approach the surface (Ref. 9710). Usually feeds in large groups away from the reefs at night. Well hidden in caves during the day and rarely seen; often observed at 10-30 m at night (Ref. 48635).
