Etymology: Myripristis: Greek, myros, -ou = male of morey eel + Greek, pristis = saw (Ref. 45335).

Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Écologie
marin récifal; profondeur 2 - 20 m (Ref. 86942). Tropical; 26°N - 24°S
Pacific Ocean: islands of Oceania except Hawaii, Easter Island, Pitcairn Group or islands off the Plate such as Solomon Islands and New Caledonia.

Taille / Poids / Âge
Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 26.5 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 89972)
Épines dorsales (Total): 11; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total): 13-14; Épines anales 4; Rayons mous anaux: 10 - 13. This species is the only Micronesian large-scaled Myripristis that lacks scales on its inner pectoral axil. It also differs by having a white spot on the upper inner pectoral axil and combination of dark red (versus black) opercular membrane, dark red or purple pectoral axil, distinct white ring around the iris, an white anterior margins of its pelvic an soft rayed fins.
Inhabits reef flats, lagoons, and seaward reefs (Ref. 9710). Commonly found on exposed outer-reef areas; often at low islands and atolls than high islands (Ref. 12419). Feeds on zooplanktons (Ref. 89972).
