Biologie     Glossaire (ex. epibenthic)

Lives among branches of Stylophora coral. Monogamous (Ref. 52884). Usually in small groups, also found in lagoon and seaward reefs in 1-10 m (Ref 90102).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturities | Reproduction | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | Larves

Bi-directional sex change has been confirmed for this species (Ref. 103751). Monogamous mating is observed as both obligate and social (Ref. 52884).
