Collected from a dark crevice on a near-vertical wall at a depth of about 15 m and from a metre-high coral formation (in 42 m depth) as they began to emerge at dusk from crevices. Like most apogonids, it appears to shelter in reef crevices and caves during the day and is active at night. General habitat at both locations consisted of large, sheltered bays exposed to freshwater influx and significant siltation (Ref. 103847).
