Short description
Κλείδες προσδιορισμού | Μορφολογία | Μορφομετρία
Ραχιαίες άκανθες (συνολικά) : 12; Μαλακές ραχιαίες ακτίνες (συνολικά) : 14 - 16; Εδρικές άκανθες: 4; Μαλακές εδρικές ακτίνες: 10 - 12. Scale coarsely ctenoid; no pair of tooth patches at front of lower jaw outside gape; color is uniform bright red (Ref. 2334).
An uncommon inhabitant of reefs; hides in deep crevices during the day and roams the reef at night (Ref. 9710). Benthopelagic (Ref. 58302). Feeds on small crustaceans, crustacean larvae, and small fishes (Ref. 9710). Solitary and seldom seen; cryptic (Ref 90102).
