Maturity: Lm ?, range 2 - ? cm
Max length : 5.0 cm SL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 48637)
Spine dorsali (totale): 2; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 26-28; Raggi anali molli: 23 - 24. Body with 6 short dermal flaps. Males have distinctive ocellus above the front base of anal fin.
Collected from mixed sand-coral habitats. Lives mainly on coastal reefs and most often found on outcrops of coral in sheltered sandy bays subject to moderate tidal currents (Ref. 48637).
