Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 12; Dorsal soft rays (total): 11-13; Anal spines: 2; Anal soft rays: 12 - 13. Distinguished from Entomacrodus by scalelike flaps on anterior portion of lateral line, fewer dorsal and anal fins, and more pectoral fin elements. Nasal, supraorbital and nuchal cirri simple and short. Both sexes without occipital crest.

Adults are found in the surge channel zone of exposed outer reefs. 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).
