колючие лучи спинного плавника (общее число) : 9; членистые (мягкие) лучи спинного плавника (общее число) : 10; колючие лучи анального плавника: 3; членистые (мягкие) лучи анального плавника: 9. Fins dull orange with tongues of green extending into the dorsal and anal; margins of median fins blue; dental plates blue-green. There appears to be no obvious difference in color with sex (Ref. 13442).
Inhabits coral reefs. Young are commonly found in mangrove areas. Feeds mainly on benthic algae (Ref. 3802). Known to have a home cave to which it retires at night or when danger threatens; makes use of the sun as an aid to locating the cave.
