Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 7; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 10 - 11; Espinas anales: 1; Radios blandos anales: 10 - 11. Characterized by having semi-translucent whitish body; orange spots interspersed with small white or bluish spots on body; dorsal fin brownish "pennant"; basal part of pectoral fin with white marking forming long, diffuse narrow white streak; greatly prolonged first and second dorsal spines; longitudinal scale series 47-51; opening of gill extending forward to vertical at posterior edge of eye; greatest depth of body 4.3-5.2 in SL; rounded caudal fin, except straight in central part, about equal to head length (Ref. 90102).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: circular.
Occurs in patches of fine sand on seaward reefs and uses alpheid shrimp burrows for refuge. Found in clear coastal and inner reefs on rubble flats and slopes in 6-20 meters depth range (Ref. 48637).
