Ecologie
marien rifbewoner; diepte 3 - 25 m. Tropical; 30°N - 30°S
Western Indian Ocean: Red Sea, Tanzania, Mozambique, Seychelles, and India. Absence of the species elsewhere in the Indian Ocean, is probably due to inadequate sampling. Absence from the Gulf of Aqaba and Persian Gulf may be the result of competition with lachneri and persicus, respectively.

Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 18.0 cm SL mannelijk / geslacht onbekend; (Ref. 9710); common length : 8.0 cm SL mannelijk / geslacht onbekend; (Ref. 2935)
Color in life pale brown with 13-16 dark brown stripes. In large fish, dorsal stripes may be irregular. A small dark spot encircled by yellow area on caudal peduncle. Spot sometimes expanded to form a dark brown bar around caudal peduncle. Distinct snow white bar between dark caudal spot (or bar) and posterior ends of body stripes. First dorsal fin dusky to dark brown. Other fins pale (in young) to dusky (in adults), but never as dark as first dorsal fin. Snout somewhat darker than body (Ref 8525).
A common species found in small aggregations around corals (Ref. 9710).
