Espinas dorsales (total) : 10; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 10 - 11; Espinas anales: 3; Radios blandos anales: 8.

Adults inhabit inshore coral and rocky reefs and in clear waters of lagoons (Ref. 9821). Pelagic and benthopelagic (Ref. 58302). Occur singly or in small groups. Feed mainly on fishes, but also eat crustaceans. Individuals with brilliant yellow on head may be nuptial males (Ref. 9821). Often curious and approachable (Ref. 9710). Marketed fresh. Minimum depth reported taken from Ref. 128797.
