Taille / Poids / Âge
Maturité: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 10.0 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 9710)
Épines dorsales (Total) : 9; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 10 - 11; Épines anales: 3; Rayons mous anaux: 9 - 10; Vertèbres: 25. Male differ from female in lacking the dark spot above origin of anal fin, the 1 or 2 narrow dark stripes anteriorly on body, and the dark spot anteriorly on the dorsal fin. Posterior caudal peduncle and fin white; upper and lower procurrent caudal rays usually 7. Preopercular margin free from corner to level of mouth; suborbital pores 7-9; preopercular pores 8-11.
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
Occurs in lagoon and seaward reefs, in areas with dense coral growth (Ref. 9710) and on steep slopes, solitary or in pairs (Ref. 90102). Probably feeds on coral polyps (Ref. 6023). Juveniles clean other fishes.
