Ambiente: milieu / zona climatica / distribuzione batimetrica / gamma di distribuzione
Ecologia
marino associati a barriera corallina; non migratori; distribuzione batimetrica 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.
