Characterized by translucent pinkish body color with narrow scale margins; orange pink abdomen and most of head, merging with tapered pink stripe to middle caudal fin base; midline of snout with whitish stripe; median fins with faint spotting; second dorsal spine elongate and filamentous; all pectoral rays unbranched; fifth pelvic ray branched, 80% length of fourth ray; pelvic frenum and rudimentary basal membrane absent; longitudinal scale series 23-24; predorsal scales 4-5; no scales on cheek; single cycloid scale on upper opercle; depth of body 4.2-4.8 in SL (Ref. 90102).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Inhabits coastal reefs to about 30 meters depth, usually hovers near caves (Ref. 48637). Forms small to large mid-water aggregations, often upside down on ceilings of caves (Ref. 90102).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 27.1 - 29, mean 28.2 °C (based on 176 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01023 (0.00477 - 0.02194), b=3.02 (2.84 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
