Épines dorsales (Total) : 0; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 18 - 22; Épines anales: 0; Rayons mous anaux: 3. Superior trunk and tail ridges discontinuous; inferior trunk ridge ending at anal ring; lateral trunk ridge continuous with inferior tail ridge; body rings 13-15 + 30-32.
Body shape (shape guide): eel-like; Cross section: angular.
Adults inhabit reef flats to a depth of over 17 m. Easily recognized by color but secretive and not often seen (Ref. 48635). Ovoviviparous (Ref. 205). The male carries the eggs in a brood pouch which is found under the tail (Ref. 205). Also seen in coral reefs in 1-20 m (Ref 90102).
