Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Espinas dorsales (total) : 13; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 12 - 13; Espinas anales: 2; Radios blandos anales: 10 - 12. Color dark brown, becoming lighter ventrally. Six vertical stripes of about eye diameter in width on the sides, the first running from the top of the head and the sixth from the posterior base of the dorsal fin.
Adults inhabit rocky inshore reefs exposed to wave action (Ref. 9334). Omnivorous (Ref. 9334). Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Eggs are demersal and adhere to the substrate (Ref. 205). Males guard and aerate the eggs (Ref. 205).
