Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 6 - 7; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 22 - 24; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 1; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 21 - 23. Body pale bluish-gray, with lavender overtones. Fins paler, greenish yellow; caudal fins rounded, moderately long. Mouth very oblique. Scales very small, about 145 in lateral series (Ref. 26938).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
Adults are found on sandy or coral rubble bottoms (Ref. 9710). They inhabit 'U-shaped' burrows. Often in pairs. Adults feed on zooplankton and hover head down near burrow (Ref. 9710). Monogamous (Ref. 52884).
