Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 12; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 18 - 22; Spine anali: 2; Raggi anali molli: 19 - 23. Teeth on jaws immovable, fewer than 40 in each jaw. Terminal anal fin ray connected by membrane to caudal peduncle. Nasal and supraorbital cirri simple, nuchal cirri absent. Both sexes with occipital crest.
Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274); Adults are usually found on the outer reef front of surge channels and pools, exposed to heavy surf. 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).
