Max length : 28.0 cm TL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 7251); common length : 17.0 cm TL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 3798)
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 13; Raios dorsais (total) : 13 - 14; Espinhos anais: 3; Raios anais : 8. Scale rows below lateral line oblique; head entirely scaled except for front of snout near upper lip and front of chin; snout very short; the maxilla not reaching a vertical through center of eye; silvery gray with five dusky yellow stripes, the two lowermost the broadest (Ref. 13442).
Occurs along exposed outer or deeper reefs. Found on semi-hard substrates (Ref. 5217). Maximum depth down to 210 m was recorded from individuals observed by submersibles (Ref. 27283). Feeds mainly on plankton (Ref. 5217); small crustaceans (Ref. 26938).
