Short description
Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale): 12; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 13-14; Spine anali 2; Raggi anali molli: 15 - 16; Vertebre: 36. This species is distinguished from its congeners by the following set of characters: pelvic-fin rays I, 3, dorsal fin usually XII,13, anal fin II,15-16 (usually 16), no blackened stripes, nape green or white and presence of numerous tiny red spots along body, diminishing in size posteriorly (Ref. 94079).
Found either solitary or in small groups of up to 10 individuals; in small holes or associated with sea-urchins and sponges on the rocky reefs (Ref. 94079). Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114). Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114).
